Published in 1848, Sir Edward Belcher's account of the Eastern Archipelago appealed to Victorian readers' enthusiasm for exploration and adventure. Volume 2 covers dramatic episodes on the homeward journey from Japan, and includes a substantial section by the ship's surgeon on the exotic flora and fauna observed during the voyage.
