It is almost unnecessary to observe, that the occurrences related in the following pages could not have been written during the painful Journey in which they happened. The writer, after his arrival at Muscat, noted down the events which took place from day to day during his travels, as he could collect them from his recollection of himself and his fellow sufferers, and by that means was able to form a connected journal from the time of the Shipwreck till his arrival at a place of safety.
Compiled by
Al Hamra, Ibn
