Book Synopsis On Great Waters (Classic Reprint) by : Frank H. Shaw
Download or read book On Great Waters (Classic Reprint) written by Frank H. Shaw and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-30 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from On Great Waters IT is not felt that any apology is needed in presenting to the public a simple narrative of the sea and the men who use it. Those who lived the life of hardship and stress such as is depicted inadequately in the following pages, were amongst the men who carried food to hungry mouths during almost five critical years in the world's history, when an unscrupulous enemy had counted on national hunger as its chiefest ally. Presently, when values are adjusted, and the great perspective of the European War is correctly laid out before the eyes of the world, it will be seen that without the British Merchant Service a different tale had been told. All through those years of inhumanity the Red Ensign kept the seas undaunted. More than fifteen thousand of such men as are feebly pictured within the pages of this book laid down their lives, far from the braying of trumpets and the Haunting of silken banners, in order that the swift-weaving shuttles of the Empire's looms might play their part in the con struction of the great fabric of victory.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from In Great Waters: Four Stories Old Jaap Visser was mad. Out there on the island of Marken, in the Zuyder Zee, he was the one madman, and a curiosity. The little boys - all born web-footed, and eager as soon as they could walk to toddle off on their stout little Dutch legs and take to the water - used to run after him and jeer at him. An underlying fear gave zest to this amusement. The older of them knew that he could lay a strange binding curse upon people. The younger of them, resolving this concept into simpler terms, knew that he could say something that would hurt more than a spanking; and that would keep on hurting, in some unexplained but dreadful way, beyond the sting of the worst spanking that ever they had known.

Book Synopsis Storied Waters by : David A. Van Wie
Download or read book Storied Waters written by David A. Van Wie and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2019-09-17 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Storied Waters chronicles the author’s six-week odyssey from Maine to Wisconsin and back to explore and fly fish America’s most storied waters and celebrate the writers and artists who made them famous. In a 5,000-mile odyssey covering over 50 locations in eight states, Van Wie follows and fishes in the footsteps of giants from Thoreau to Hemingway, Robert Traver to Corey Ford, Louise Dickinson Rich to Aldo Leopold to Winslow Homer and many more. Storied Waters provides a virtual roadmap through 200 years of fly-fishing literature and a literal roadmap—complete with local fishing tips—to the hallowed waters of our sport. In each chapter, informative sidebars detail fishing spots, best times to fish, major hatches, and other intel. Storied Waters is a grand vicarious adventure, driving the backroads for weeks at a time exploring beautiful places, and meeting fascinating people who share a common interest. With an easy, conversational writing voice enhanced with spectacular photographs, Van Wie relates an eclectic mix of travel narrative, natural history, and fishing tips and advice, as well as a deep (but sometimes humorously irreverent) appreciation for the writers who have created such a rich legacy of stories about fishing over the past 200 years.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Beyond the Black Waters: A Tale The title of this work would probably convey no definite idea to the minds of most Europeans; it might be considered as merely a figurative expression. It is otherwise with the native of Hindostan. The Black Waters are to him those that cut off from happiness and home the criminals of that vast region to which he belongs. Beyond the Black Waters lie the Andaman Islands, where, at the present time, about thirteen thousand convicts of both sexes - thieves, murderers, and murderesses - endure the punishment of exile, the due reward of their crimes. A kind of mysterious pall seems to hang over the isles beyond the Black Waters. The convicts are under Government protection and Government control; nor can there be communication with them (at any rate with those confined in jail) without Government permission. The criminals are not treated harshly; the place of their exile is fruitful and fair. Nature smiles upon the Andaman Islands; it is man, guilty man, who seems to have forgotten how to smile.

Download or read book Pleasant Waters written by Graham Claytor and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-22 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pleasant Waters: Story of Southern Life and Character It was near the middle of May. The foliage was already thick and green in Southern field and forest. The booming of cannon and the pea] of musketry had ceased forever (let it be hoped) along Southern hill and valley. Brightly the sun shone that day, but it shone upon a land filled with a deep and solemn pathos. The night following General Johnston's order, a lone soldier sat in his tent. His countenance was gloomy and dejected. And yet the soldier breathed a sigh of relief that the end had come. He had never faltered in his allegiance to the Southern cause. He had never lacked confidence in the great general under whom he so long fought. If need be, he was now ready to lay down his life for his country. But, whatever had been his zeal in time of war, now that the end had come, with promise of speedy restoration of peace, he was heartily glad. He loved his country too well and too wisely to witness with anything but pain the sacrifice of so many noble men and the desolation of so many beautiful homes. He would be as zealous in restoring tranquillity to his country as he had been dauntless in fighting her battles.

Download or read book Home Waters written by John N. Maclean and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2021-06-01 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Beautiful. ... A lyrical companion to his father’s classic, A River Runs through It, chronicling their family’s history and bond with Montana’s Blackfoot River.” —Washington Post A "poetic" and "captivating" (Publishers Weekly) memoir about the power of place to shape generations, Home Waters is John N. Maclean's remarkable chronicle of his family's century-long love affair with Montana's majestic Blackfoot River, the setting for his father's classic novella, A River Runs through It. Maclean returns annually to the simple family cabin that his grandfather built by hand, still in search of the trout of a lifetime. When he hooks it at last, decades of longing promise to be fulfilled, inspiring John, reporter and author, to finally write the story he was born to tell. A book that will resonate with everyone who feels deeply rooted to a landscape, Home Waters is a portrait of a family who claimed a river, from one generation to the next, of how this family came of age in the 20th century and later as they scattered across the country, faced tragedy and success, yet were always drawn back to the waters that bound them together. Here are the true stories behind the beloved characters fictionalized in A River Runs through It, including the Reverend Maclean, the patriarch who introduced the family to fishing; Norman, who balanced a life divided between literature and the tug of the rugged West; and tragic yet luminous Paul (played by Brad Pitt in Robert Redford’s film adaptation), whose mysterious death has haunted the family and led John to investigate his uncle’s murder and reveal new details in these pages. A universal story about nature, family, and the art of fly fishing, Maclean’s memoir beautifully captures the inextricable ways our personal histories are linked to the places we come from—our home waters. Featuring twelve wood engravings by Wesley W. Bates and a map of the Blackfoot River region.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Unpath'd Waters It was after the troubles in Jerusalem that a man called Joshua, a carpenter and smith, came to Caesarea. Almost before the neighbours were aware of it, he had settled down in a little hut opposite the house of Simon the image-maker, and was working quietly at his trade. He was a Jew, to all appearances: a middle-aged Jew, with features sharpened by suffering, or possibly by illness, and yet in many ways he was not like a Jew: he never went near a synagogue, he never argued about religion or anything else, and he took what people gave him for his work without bargaining. To his loud, high-coloured, grasping compatriots he seemed to be rather a poor creature; but a certain liking softened their contempt of him, for his shrinking self-effacement flattered vanity and disposed them in his favour.
