Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Cyclones of the Far East In the preface to the first edition, 1897, I said: This book was written as an essay in order not to deprive the public longer of the practical utility which may be derived from a study of the data concerning typhoons which have been gathered in this observatory from its foundation in 1865 to the present. In view of the immense amount of valuable material I should believe myself wanting in my duty if I did not at once make use of these treasures for the benefit of those who navigate these tempestuous seas and of the inhabitants of these Islands, so beautiful, but subject to the disastrous typhoons.
