Hill (2nd ed.) 1761. “Vason’s narrative first appeared in 1810 under the title An Authentic Narrative of Four Years’ Residence at Tongataboo, one of the Friendly Islands, in the South Sea .... This later version “contains the same narrative as the earlier versions, but in this 1840 version, Reverend Orange ... has added a preface and a fifty-page essay on the South Sea Islands, telling of the shocking barbarity with which the missionaries at Tongatabu were treated (some were killed), and describing the reception of other missionaries at Tahiti and Samoa” (Hill).
