A Voyage to Guiana BEING THE JOURNAL OF JESSE DE FORESTAND HIS COLONISTS
Text Appearing After Image:
lAl OF THE RIVER WVAPOKO, KhPKOUlehU AS IN THE ORIGINAL JOURNAL Introduction to the Journal IN the British Museum there has lain for overone hundred and fifty years a manuscript vol-ume, shaped like an old-fashioned copy-book,belonging to the original collection of Sir HansSloane, the founder of the Museum. This manu-script is the journal of a voyage of the Dutch shipPigeon to Guiana in the years 1623-1625, and waswritten by a member of the ships company. Underthe catalogue heading Guiana, it has remained,apparently unnoticed, since it first found lodgmentin the Museum. Books have been written aboutearly voyages to the Wild Coast (as Guiana wasthen called), but no one of the writers appears tohave read of the adventure of Jesse de Forest in1623. No attention seemingly was paid to our Jour-nal until the end of the nineteenth century. At allevents, until this time no mention of it was madeby scholars or historians, so far as the present writerhas been able to discover. The book slept on
