More about the book
A Narrative by Captain Basil Hall of his voyage with Captain Murray Maxwell to the West Coast of Corea (Korea) and the Great Loo-Choo Island in 1816. This appealing work attracted great popular interest when it was published for it's portrayal of the people of the Island - 'We saw nothing like poverty or distress of any kind: every person that we met seemed contented and happy'. The detailed colour drawings of the islanders and Hall's powers of description combine to create a wonderful picture of a land that must have seemed exotically different to the visiting Europeans from their own homeland.
