This book was released on 2019-07-15 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published anonymously in 1861 under the name of "A Roving Printer," there has been much speculation about the true identity of the author who has since been named as John D Jones although there is no definitive proof of this. The book narrates the tale of a five year whaling voyage out of New Bedford on the Emily Morgan, giving an account of the day-to-day occupations of two young men who shipped on the whaler, supplying information on whales and offering vivid descriptions of whaling operations. The ship visited many islands, including Guam, the Hawaiian Islands, Tonga, Juan Fernandez, and Formosa, and the reader is given an insight into life in these far-flung destinations. Illustrated throughout with wood engravings.

This book was released on 2016-08-26 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life and Adventure in the South Pacific The present volume lays no claim to literary merit. Two young men, led to engage in the whale-fisheries, and spending five years in the employment, have com piled from their log-books and their recollection a plain, unvarnished narrative of this period. The work is placed before the public as an account of localities few have visited, and the detail of an employment of which little is generally known. The chief effort in the way of style has been to give vivid descriptions, and make the reader the companion of the traveler. Aside from the information of the volume, it is enlivened by life on shipboard. In these days of many books, in which voyages have no small representation, it may seem almost pre sumptuous to put forth another tale of travel. Yet ev ery traveler has his own experiences; and the sailors who offer here their narrative for the landsman's inspec tion believe that their yarn is not an old one, and they have some confidence that the reader will not say it is a dull one.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Following the successful The Sound of Music Companion, comes The South Pacific Companion, the essential guide and history for the discerning musical lover and SP fanatic. 2008 marks the 50th anniversary of this wonderful film. This fascinating book covers the history of the stage show and its historical context. World War II was fresh in the world's minds when this show first opened on Broadway - only 4 years after the end of the war - and this gave the film an immensely poignant immediacy. Deservedly, both the novel and the musical of South Pacific won the Pulitzer Prize. South Pacific returns to the UK stage in summer 2007 with a 10 month tour, starring Helena Blackman (from How Do You Solve A Problem Like Maria) and Dave Willetts. In 2008 the musical's first ever Broadway revival is to open at the Lincoln Center in April. With extensive images from the film, plus many never seen before photographs from the original stage show, this is a beautiful and indispensable guide to South Pacific.

Download or read book Among the Islands written by Tim Flannery and published by Open Road + Grove/Atlantic. This book was released on 2012-11-06 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A story of science and discovery that’s “part travel diary and part field notebook . . . like what you’d get if Charles Darwin starred in an Indiana Jones flick” (Audubon Magazine). Credited with discovering more species than Charles Darwin, Tim Flannery has been hailed as “the rock star of modern science.” Here, he recounts a series of expeditions he made early in his career to the islands of the South Pacific, a great arc stretching nearly 4,000 miles from the postcard perfection of Polynesia to some of the largest, highest, and most rugged islands on earth (Jared Diamond, Pulitzer Prize–winning author of Guns, Germs, and Steel). Originally traveling in search of rare and undiscovered mammal species, Flannery found much more: fascinating places where local taboos, foul weather, dense jungle, and sheer remoteness made for dramatic exploration; strange creatures such as monkey faced bats, giant rats, gazelle-faced black wallabies; and human cultures far removed from our own. This “rollicking good adventure-science read” is a must-have for anyone who has ever imagined voyaging to the ends of the earth to uncover and study the rare and the wonderful (Audubon Magazine).
