Excerpt from In Savage Isles and Settled Lands: Malaysia, Australasia and Polynesia, 1888-1891 Tms book contains merely a short account of my impressions during a journey of some miles, and extending over three years. A full account of all the countries visited would fill several volumes, and would form a work of a very different nature to the jottings contained herein, limited as far as possible to my own personal doings and observations. There is much, very much, both interesting and amusing that occurred during my sojourn in Queens land as a.d.c. To the Governor. But as such experiences would hardly be in keeping with a book of travel, I have not included more than the briefest descriptions of Australian life and society. My best thanks are due to the Rajah of Sarawak, and many others who have kindly looked through the manuscript.
