Other islands visited included the Falkland Islands, the Galapagos Islands, Chatham Island, the Gilberts, and the Tuamotu Archipelago. There were stops at the ports of South and North America, New Guinea and Melanesia. He made three stops at Tahiti and provides a general account of the island, as well as a detailed discussion of the English Missionaries there. Chapter V11 gives a description of fitting up a ship for sperm whaling, and gives an account of his first successful attempt at killing a whale. The "Stratford" returned to England in 1836.

brossura L'opportunità di un viaggio, a Rodrigues, la più piccola dell'arcipelago delle isole Mascarene, nell'oceano Indiano fornisce ad una viaggiatrice attenta, come M. Laura Crescimanno, il privilegio di ripercorrere quel Viaggio a Rodrigues del premio Nobel 2008 per la letteratura, Jean Marie Gustave Le Clézio, un diario fantastico sulla terra natale dei suoi avi, giunti sul posto da Mauritius alla ricerca di un tesoro dei pirati. M. Laura Crescimanno trova invece altri tesori, tra tutti il mare e una natura non contaminata, ancora salva dal turismo di massa, l'ospitalità degli abitanti e i colori eccezionali della fauna e dell'ambiente che la circonda, e ce ne fa dono, insieme alle citazioni di Le Clézio, e alle sue attente osservazioni sull.ecologia e sugli attuali modelli di sviluppo sostenibile. Non soltanto un diario di viaggio, quindi, ma un attento reportage sul futuro dell'ambiente marino e terrestre in pericolo per lo sfruttamento indiscriminato delle risorse, una testimonianza diretta degli abitanti di questi ultimi paradisi e una rubrica di consigli per costruire il proprio viaggio nell.isola.
