Excerpt from Bering's Voyages, Vol. 2 of 2: An Account of the Efforts of the Russians to Determine the Relation of Asia and America; Steller's Journal of the Sea Voyage From Kamchatka to America and Return on the Second Expedition, 1741-1742Scholars will be ever grateful to Bering for persuading Steller to go with him on the St. Peter. Steller's account of his experiences is the most interesting of all the papers that have come down to us. The naval officers' log books contain the dry facts of the voyage, but Steller's journal gives the spirit of it, the inside story, the moral forces at work. The two records supplement each other, sometimes even in matters of navigation, and that is one reason why they are published together.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
