Edward Brown
Sailor Edward Brown had taken command of a Chinese-crewed ship when it was captured by pirates. In this engaging account, published in 1861, Brown recounts his months in captivity and the places he was taken, giving a vivid picture of Cochin-China (Vietnam) during the Second Opium War (1856–60).
