| Summary | Volume 3 of the memoir written by Crowe, covering the years 1847-1850. It explains how his employment as master of the brig LEVEN LASS (1839) of Glasgow ended because of the commercial failure of the shipowners. It then describes several voyages of the barque AUGUSTA (1841), owned by Sim & Co, mainly between Glasgow and New York. This volume also mentions the births of two daughters, one of them at sea off Chile. Sketches showing Valparaiso Bay and the method of loading guano in the Chincha Islands are included. |
