Description
Excerpt from A Narrative of the Expedition to Algiers in the Year 1816: Under the Command of the Right Hon. Admiral Lord Viscount Exmouth
Perhaps it maybe thought an instance of vanity that I pretend at all to write my own life at this early period, as it is very difficult for a person to speak of himself without leading the mind to think either he is a vain man or an assumer but as this narrative shall contain very little of my own history, which will be as a mere curious satisfaction, being a foreigner, I should hope that the reader will not consider such representation as an object of vanity.
