Excerpt from Canyon and Crater, or Scenes in California and the Sandwich Islands The tour of which this volume is an imperfect record was originally undertaken with a view chiefly to the restoration of the author's health; and in that respect, if in no other, it proved a gratifying success. In no quarter of the globe can there be found a climate more friendly to the human constitu tion than that of California and the Sandwich Islands. Of the two localities, the latter is entitled to the preference; and the only drawback upon its attractions is the long sea-voyage which the impatient traveler must endure before reaching the haven of his anticipations.
