New: More stories from the Packet Surgeon

As well as re-presenting Maritime Views we have taken the opportunity to add some more material for some of our existing stories.

One of these is a section of Miscellanea written by Packet Surgeon James Williamson. These include a series of short pieces which he added at the end of his journal including:

• The pleasures of life at sea
• The miseries of life at sea
• A series of anecdotes and jottings such as would appear in an occasional book
• A series of observations and stories about Falmouth, Cornwall, Devon and places he visited
