This review is from: Voyage to a Thousand Cares: Master's Mate Lawrence With the African Squadron, 1844-1846 (Hardcover)
Very interesting look at a little known part of history, from the eyes of the observer. The reader is drawn into this man's life.

2.0 out of 5 stars And no index, December 9, 2009

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Voyage to a Thousand Cares: Master's Mate Lawrence With the African Squadron, 1844-1846 (Hardcover)
Wonderful source material to work with but the organizational structure of the book did not help its material. The lack of an index was embarassing.
