A tale of an adventure to the South Sea island of Orofenia and the day an earthquake nearly destroyed the earth.

Now I am going to be frank about myself, for without frankness what is the value of such a record as this? Then it becomes simply another convention, or rather conventional method of expressing the octoroon kind of truths with which the highly civilised races feed themselves, as fastidious ladies eat cakes and bread from which all but the smallest particle of nourishment has been extracted. - Excerpt from When the World Shook
