Falkland Islands

"Those isles of the sea are calling to me, The smell of the camp fire a dear memory. Though far I may roam, some day I’ll come home To the islands, the Falklands, the isles of the sea."

"Never, perhaps, was any Object in itself, abstractedly considered, less valuable, nor less worthy of public Attention, than the Falkland Islands: yet, the Manner in which Spain acted on the Occasion, displayed so much Arrogance, as to compromise the Honor of the British Crown, and to demand a Reparation no less public than the Affront."
