Excerpt from Travels in Central America: Being a Journal of Nearly Three Years Residence in the Country, Together With a Sketch of the History of the Republic, and an Account of Its Climate, Productions, Commerce, EtcThe object of this work is to furnish the English reader with some trustworthy information respecting Central America, a portion of the world almost un known in England. It consists chie¿y of extracts from the Author's private journal, and contains a brief sketch of the history of the Republic of Central America, from its origin to the present time, together with an account of the most remarkable phenomena and productions, and the present state of its society, agriculture, and commerce. During its completion the Author had not at hand any of the works which treat of Central 'america, but this is the less to be regretted, as the only publications he has seen relating to it were merely notices of hurried travels through the country, which, while abounding with palpable inaccuracies, contained no statistical or use ful information of any description.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
