TRANSCRIBER’S NOTE This book was published in 1865. It was, as the Preface notes, a “literal” and “exact” copy of the original book published in 1674, and so retained the spelling, the punctuation and the copious italicizing of the original. (The errata in the 1674 book were applied.) This etext maintains this careful reproduction of the 1674 text, with some exceptions that are noted at the end of the book. The page numbers of the 1674 book are embedded in the text and etext in [] brackets; for example [p. 75.] The 1865 publisher inserted two corrections in [] brackets; they have been retained in this etext without change: page 9: “the Ships trine [trim?] a foot by the stern” page 157: “20 English miles, [leagues?] or 60 miles”. The dates in the book of course accord with the Julian calendar. Dual dating was (sometimes) used for events between January 1st and March 25th (the end of a Julian year), for example on page 204: “the 24 of _January_ 1659/60 landed at”. Italic text is denoted by _underscores_. The tables in this book are best viewed using a monospace font. [Illustration: (Decorative banner.)] TWO VOYAGES TO NEW-ENGLAND.

The work published by Josselyn in 1672, entitled “New England’s Rarities discovered,” which has been reprinted in a similar form, and as a companion volume to the present, contains a full and detailed account of the family of the author, with many curious facts relating to the personal history of this early explorer of New England; but it has been thought expedient to prefix to his narrative a genealogical chart of the family, copied from a paper among the Harleian MSS. in the British Museum, the substance of which has been printed in the “New England Historical and Genealogical Register,” and which is now kindly furnished for publication by Samuel G. Drake, Esq. The table now published will be found generally to confirm the information given in the account of the family already published.
