Yes, I found about this book while reading "Em Busca Do Sonho" ("In search of a dream", in portuguese) by Heloisa Schurmann, another interesting book.
In PG there's a previous book by Slocum, "Voyage of the Liberdade", that is also worth a look. |

Thank you for preparing and uploading this book. I first read it as a child, perhaps 60 years ago, and am enjoying it immensely.
I also appreciate the fine work you have done in preparing the book and its illustrations. When I get the time I'm going to open up the ePub and see what I can learn from it. Regards, Alex |

If you look inside the book you will see a couple of tricks, all of them learnt from the masters here at MR. I haven't found the time to read it myself yet, if you find any typos please let me know. |
