Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from His Majesty's Sloop Diamond RockOne day a French prize came up the Sound a frigate, torn and battered, but with the British jack floating proudly above the tricolor; no won der that the boys cheered, the masters looking on indulgently and half ready to join them. AS it was a holiday, the Older boys received permission. To walk in to Plymouth under the guidance of a master; and if that gentleman had any breath left when he got there, it was n't the fault of his pupils. The streets were gay with naval uniforms, and boats were darting hither and thither about the harbor; but Tom had no eyes except for the Ships, and among them he soon saw the prize riding quietly at anchor. Standing a little apart, he watched it for a long time; and his heart swelled as he marked the black rows of guns and the splintered holes and disordered rigging, tokens of a rough combat.Well, my little fellow, said a voice beside him, it 's worth something to see the Old English bunting above that flag.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

WHAT NED SAW UNDER THE ORANGE-TREE. 7HAT is it, Ned?" asked Lew, who was at a loss to V V understand the reason of his companion's sudden stop. "Look!" replied Ned, simply, stepping aside so his friend could see what had met his gaze. Lew uttered a cry of horror at the sight which he beheld, and he started back. Then both looked first at the ghastly spectacle in their pathway and then upon each other without speaking. At their feet lay the body of a dead man! The upturned face left no doubt of the decease of the silent figure, looking up at them with glassy eyes. It was not a white man, but a Hawaiian. "Mauve!" whispered Ned, the first to speak after the shock of finding the body had passed. "So near his home when he died," said Lew. "He must have been taken ill suddenly." "He was strangled!" declared Ned, who had taken a closer observation of the surroundings. "See the vine lying there by his side with which it was done. One end is still around his neck!" "And the other thrown over the tree above him. He must have hung himself." "No--no! Had that been the case it would have been shorter. He lies too far outside of the tree for that. Here are signs of a struggle. Poor Mauve was dealt with foully. I could not have eaten my dinner with so good a relish had I known he was lying so near and dead. Poor Mauve! it came at last, after all." "Do you think he was killed by those who had threatened him for telling their secret?" asked Lew, who at once recalled the story told by his companion at their noonday meal. "Of course I am not sure of it, but it looks so. I am very sure it is so. It is too bad, for Mauve was a kindhearted man, like the majority of the Hawaiians, having no malice against any one, open-hearted and generous to a fault. Outside...

Book excerpt: In the tradition of C.S. Forester, ex-sailor Richard Woodman brings history to life in a rousing tale of daring deeds and clashing cutlasses. it is the summer of 1804 and Napoleon is massing his vast army for the invasion of England. His powerful Combined Fleet is preparing to meet Admiral Nelson's British Fleet in the Battle of Trafalgar. In the annals of history this battle completely decimated the Combined Fleet, ranking second in destructiveness only to the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. Captain Nathaniel Drinkwater, newly appointed commander of the frigate Antigone, is preparing for battle off the French coast, as part of Admiral Nelson's highly effective blockade. As the fleets draw together, Drinkwater is unprepared for the irregular role destiny deals him when he becomes a prisoner of the French and takes the brunt of the British bombardment in the orlop of an enemy ship.
