"Excerpt from the second edition of A Chinese commercial guide (Canton 1844), namely chapter 1. It includes sailing directions that were noted during a survey of the Chinese outer islands between Xiamen and Xiangshan in January-April 1843, by captains Kellet and Coolinson of the HMS Starling and Plover. This area is infamous for its many dangerous small islands and rocks and therefore a pilot guide was essential for British sailors to navigate these waters. The topographic names are given in English and in Chinese characters."--Vendor's online catalog (Forum Rare Books).
