First published in 1811, and here reissued in its 'corrected and improved' second edition (1814), John Lambert's Travels is packed with fascinating descriptions and lively anecdotes. Volume 1 describes Newfoundland and Quebec, the French, British and Native American communities, trade, religion, and exotic foods including maple sugar and 'stinking cheese'.
