"That suits me," answered Phil Lawrence, throwing down the astronomy he had been studying. "But I can't stay out late," he added, reaching for his cap. "Got two examples in algebra to do. Have you finished up?" "Yes," answered Dave Porter. "They are not so hard." "And your Latin?" "That's done, too." Phil Lawrence eyed the boy before him admiringly. "Dave, I don't see how you manage it. You're always on deck for fun, and yet you scarcely miss a lesson. Let me into the secret, won't you?" "That's right, Dave; pull the cover off clean and clear," came from a youth who had just entered the school dormitory. "If I can get lessons without studying--" "Oh, Roger, you know better than that," burst out Dave Porter, with a smile. "Of course I have to study-just the same as anybody. But when I study, I study, and when I play, I play. I've found out that it doesn't pay to mix the two up-it is best to buckle your mind down to the thing on hand and to nothing else." "That's the talk," came from a boy resting on one of the beds. "It puts me in mind of a story I once heard about a fellow who fell from the roof of a house to the ground--" "There goes Shadow again!" cried Roger Morr. "Shadow, will you ever get done telling chestnuts?" "This isn't a chestnut, and I haven't told it over twice in my life. The man fell to the ground past an open window.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Dave Porter in the South Seas: Or the Strange Cruise of the Stormy Petrel In the first volume of this series, called Dave Porter at Oak Hall, I introduced a typical Ameri can boy, and gave something of his haps and mis haps at an American boarding school of to-day. At this school Dave made a number of warm friends, and also a few enemies, and was the means of bringing one weak and misguided youth to a realization of his better self. Dave was poor and had to fight his way to the front, and this was not accomplished until he had shown those around him what a truly straightforward and manly fellow he was.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Dave Porter in the Gold Fields: Or the Search for the Landslide Mine Dave porter IN the gold fields is a complete story in itself, but forms the tenth volume in a line issued under the general title of Dave Porter Series. The series was begun some years ago by the publication of Dave Porter at Oak Hall, in which my young readers were introduced to a typical American lad at a typical American board ing school. There was at that time a cloud over Dave's parentage, and to clear this away he took a long sea voyage, as related in the next volume, entitled Dave Porter in the South Seas. Then he came back to school, as told of in Dave Porter's Return to School, in which he gave one of the local bullies a much-needed lesson. During a vacation Dave journeyed to Norway, as related in Dave Porter in the Far North, and then came back to Oak Hall, to win various honors, as recorded in Dave Porter and His Classmates. Then came an opportunity to visit the West, and how our hero did this is set down in the book called Dave Porter at Star Ranch.

Download or read book The Shining Sea written by George Daughan and published by Constellation. This book was released on 2013-10-08 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A few months after the outbreak of the War of 1812, Captain David Porter set out in the USS Essex on an epic, seventeen-month cruise to the South Seas. Porter was pursuing fame and riches, and by most accounts his odyssey was a stunning success: it brought glory to the fledgling American navy, cemented Porter’s reputation as a daring and talented commander, and has long been celebrated as one of the greatest maritime adventures in U.S. history. Less well known, however, is the terrible price that the crew of the Essex paid for their captain’s outsized ambitions. In The Shining Sea, award-winning historian George C. Daughan tells the full story of Porter’s thrilling, action-packed voyage, revealing the heights of Porter’s hubris and the true depths of his failure on this fateful cruise. Intent on achieving personal glory, Porter made the treacherous journey around Cape Horn and into the Pacific Ocean, where he planned to capture a British man-of-war. From Valparaiso to the Galapagos to the Marquesas, the Essex roamed the South Seas, seizing British whaling and merchant ships, wreaking havoc on British commerce, and earning Porter and his men wealth and acclaim. Flush with his victories, Porter welcomed the news that a British frigate—the HMS Phoebe—was on his tail, and he resolved to capture her. But Porter could not overcome the Phoebe’s superior firepower. Over the course of a desperate, bloody battle, he lost the Essex and over two-thirds of her crew—a shocking end to a daring journey. A swashbuckling tale of risk and ruin on the high seas, The Shining Sea brings to life the monomaniacal quest of one of the most misunderstood commanders of the War of 1812. Porter’s singular voyage, Daughan shows, stands as a cautionary tale for any leader who would put personal glory and ambition ahead of cause and countrymen.
