Enough if I say that after I had been fairly well grounded in English, arithmetic and the like, which plain education I have never wearied of improving by reading everything good that came in my way, I was bound apprentice to a respectable man named Joshua Cox, of Whitby, and served my time in his vessel, the Laughing Susan - a brave, nimble brigantine.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Phantom Death: And Other Stories All went well with us for several days. Our ship's company consisted of twelve men, including a boatswain and carpenter. The forecastle hands appeared very hearty, likely fellows, despite their pier-head raiment of Scotch cap and broken small clothes, and open ﬂannel shirt, and greasy sheath-knife belted to the hip. They worked with a will, they sang out cheerily at the ropes, they went in and out of the galley at meal-time without faces of loathing, and but one complaint came aft before our wonderful, mysterious troubles began the ship's bread crawled, they said, and, being found truly very had, good white ﬂour was served out in lieu. We had been eight days at sea, and in that time had made fairly good way; it drew down a quiet, soft, black night with the young moon gone soon after sunset, a trembling ﬂash of stars over the mastheads, a murky dimness of heat and of stagnation all round about the sea-line, and a frequent glance of sea-fire over the side when a dip of the barque's round bends drove the water from her in a swelling cloud of ebony. I walked the quarter-deck with the captain, and our talk was of England and of the Brazils, and of his experiences as a mariner of thirty years' standing. What of the weather? Said I, as we came to a pause at the binnacle, whose bright disc of illuminated card touched into phantom outlines the hairy features of the Jack who grasped the wheel.

The silence of death was only broken by a queer, rhythmical scrunching sound, which seemed like the lap of idle waves against the vessel's side. Either the engines had broken down or the ship was becalmed or befogged. He snuggled up in the retrieved blanket, all the bedclothes that the ship afforded.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Murder at Sea It was a large hall in a great seaport town At the sides and up and down the middle lay rows of shrouded objects with narrow passages opening between them. The blinds of the long windows had been drawn; the light was dim. From time to time men appeared at one or other of the doors, bearing other objects, which they laid reverently on the floor. No word was spoken, but now and again whispers suggested that orders were being given as to where the objects should be placed. Along the aisles running up and down the hall two old seamen, bent with years, moved without noise; here and there were little groups of people, men and women in the distress of overwhelming sorrow. A shroud would be raised and a hasty, furtive, shrinking glance taken at the features of a man or woman, wax-like and immobile.

Emory We remained in dock a full two days after embarking, dur ing which time no one was allowed to leave the ship or to mention his location in a letter. On a fine Sunday afternoon we started off, almost without warning, and in spite of our impatience at the delay, it gave us quite a shock, a mixture of a thrill of excitement and a sinking sensation, to see America getting away from us. The sights of the harbor, a change indeed from the deadly barracks and sand of the past eight months, kept our thoughts busy, but there was not a man who did not look at that receding land at least once and wonder if he would see it again.

When an explosion rips across Hunstanton Beach on the north Norfolk coast, an abandoned Second World War bomb is assumed to be the cause . . . but is it? Could there be a connection with the new pier being built – and the increasingly bitter campaign to halt its construction? At the same time, DI Shaw and DS Valentine are on the hunt for an elderly female killer with a uniquely macabre method of despatch. And a 63-year-old Dutch engineer is missing, presumed drowned . . . but where is the body? All seemingly unrelated investigations – but in each case nothing is as it seems. To find the answers, Shaw must delve into the past, and a mystery that has remained unsolved for more than sixty years.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NATIONAL BESTSELLER • NATIONAL BOOK AWARD FINALIST • An "extraordinary ... profoundly moving" history (The New York Times Book Review) of the American Civil War that reveals the ways that death on such a scale changed not only individual lives but the life of the nation. An estiated 750,000 soldiers lost their lives in the American Civil War. An equivalent proportion of today's population would be seven and a half million. In This Republic of Suffering, Drew Gilpin Faust describes how the survivors managed on a practical level and how a deeply religious culture struggled to reconcile the unprecedented carnage with its belief in a benevolent God. Throughout, the voices of soldiers and their families, of statesmen, generals, preachers, poets, surgeons, nurses, northerners and southerners come together to give us a vivid understanding of the Civil War's most fundamental and widely shared reality. With a new introduction by the author, and a new foreword by Mike Mullen, 17th Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
