Book synopsis

The diary of Dr.Chaloner Clay is a unique piece of British maritime history published here for the very first time. This verbatim reproduction provides an insight on a way of travelling the high seas that is long since gone. This word-for-word journal was hand written when Britain did still literally rule the waves. This diary has been in the possesion of the great grandson of its author for many years and it is reproduced here word-for-word from the hand written original for the very first time. In todays modern world we take international travel for granted but in 1881 when this diary was produced things were very different indeed. The diary of Dr.Chalioner Clay will take you back in time to re-live a first hand account of sailing aboard the HESPERUS from the UK to Australia. It will take you on a real life journey the likes of which are from an era none of us have ever experienced and will never do again.
