"San Francisco in common with other cities in the United States at the time had a problem with free-ranging dogs. In Los Angeles in the 1840s dogs outnumbered people by nearly two to one and while the situation in San Francisco had not reached this extreme the large numbers of strays and feral dogs did cause problems. Dogs were regularly poisoned or trapped and killed. Nevertheless if a dog turned out to be a good ratter or distinguished itself in some other way it was still possible for it to survive".-wikipedia.

A picture of this book is available upon request by email. Spence 456. Hill p. 101, describing the first edition of 1833, which had just 5 plates: 'Captain Fanning of Stonington, Connecticut, sailed for the South Seas in 1792, on a voyage for sealskins, and during the next 25 years made voyages to the Pacific and around the world, visiting Australia, the desolate lands of South Georgia, and the islanders of Fiji, Tonga and the Marquesas. He discovered several islands, including one that still bears his name, lying 1200 miles south of Honolulu. Included is an account of the first American naval exploring expedition to the southern hemisphere, 1829-30, sponsored by the U. S. government and commanded by Benjamin Pendleton.' Fanning island figured prominently in a famous murder trial, written up by lawyer Vincent Bugliosi, 'And the Sea Will Tell'. See Howes F28 for first edition. 'One of the most interesting of all the early voyages made by Americans that have been published and that it deserves a wide acquaintance among those who would learn of the adventurers' courage that led the Yankee sailor to set his course in every sea' (prospectus).
