Excerpt: ...I found the objects I was in search of in the bank in which I had deposited them. These I removed, and, bringing them with me, retraced my steps to Austra Beach, where I arrived after much fatigue. The distance of Sidney Cove from Austra Beach is about ten miles; and as I had been much reduced in strength by long fasting and insufficient food for some days, in conjunction with an almost sleepless night, towards the close of my journey I could scarcely place one foot before another; and when I reached our boat was glad to avail myself of what provision my companions had prepared for me and of what rest I could obtain. During my absence the remainder of the party had brought the oars, spars, and other things from the opposite side of the " haul-over," and deposited them near the boat to be in readiness when we next launched her. Here we remained some days, detained as usual by stress of weather and violent winds which prevented our crossing the bay; but as soon as the wind abated and the atmosphere became more settled and favourable we dismantled our hut, launched the boat, and putting some additional spars found upon the shore into it, in conjunction with those we formerly had, we pulled across the bay and landed on the opposite side, between Captain Matley's Island and the Bluffs, which were more to the eastward. Here we again hauled our boat up, and built her into a hut rj usual, intending to use this as our night-station for a time until we had removed our building materials to Long Point, where we had determined upon erecting our house. After a day or two of rest we proceeded with our work, which now consisted in carrying the spars, &c, to their destination, and in doing this we had to travel along the series of stony...

Book Synopsis Exploring Polar Frontiers [2 volumes] by : William James Mills
Download or read book Exploring Polar Frontiers [2 volumes] written by William James Mills and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2003-12-11 with total page 844 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Covers the entire history of Arctic and Antarctic exploration, from the voyage of Pytheas ca. 325 B.C. to the present, in one convenient, comprehensive reference resource. Exploring Polar Frontiers: A Historical Encyclopedia is the only reference work that provides a comprehensive history of polar exploration from the ancient period through the present day. The author is a noted polar scholar and offers dramatic accounts of all major explorers and their expeditions, together with separate exploration histories for specific islands, regions, and uncharted waters. He presents a wealth of fascinating information under a variety of subject entries including methods of transport, myths, achievements, and record-breaking activities. By approaching polar exploration biographically, geographically, and topically, Mills reveals a number of intriguing connections between the various explorers, their patrons and times, and the process of discovery in all areas of the polar regions. Furthermore, he provides the reader with a clear understanding of the intellectual climate as well as the dominant social, economic, and political forces surrounding each expedition. Readers will learn why the journeys were undertaken, not just where, when, and how.

Book Synopsis East Anglia's History by : Christopher Harper-Bill
Download or read book East Anglia's History written by Christopher Harper-Bill and published by Boydell Press. This book was released on 2002 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: East Anglia's political and economic importance in the middle ages is plain for all to see, stemming initially from its crucial position on the eastern shores of the North Sea and its participation in the successive patterns of invasion and settlement of England. Archaeological evidence abounds: burial mounds, castles, great churches deriving from the wealth created by sheep, yeoman farmhouses, and market towns of eighteenth-century elegance. Behind these visible manifestations of the march of centuries lie particular histories, and these seventeen studies from the region's best scholars reveal some of those jigsaw puzzles of time, ranging from the Domesday herring industry by way of monasteries, memorials, wills, Gainsborough and garden history to the growing passion for natural history and science in the mid nineteenth century. They make a serious contribution to an understanding of the region, and at the same time honour Norman Scarfe, whose own studies have played a notable part in the interpretation of East Anglia's history.
