This weekend I spent some time going through the very delicate 1899 diary, which contains some of the details of Myles's very first journeys. In it he travels to places like Australia and Baltimore with a few stops in Cape Town (to deliver troops for the Boer War), Onega in the White Sea (to pick up timber) and Copenhagen, Antwerp and Amsterdam a number of times. The journal also contains a series of stories and illustrations. I've posted a few below.
