Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Colonial Clippers IN this book I have attempted to give some account of the beautiful sailing ships which played so great a part in the development of the great British Dominions under the Southern Cross. It is written specially for the officers and seamen of our Mercantile Marine, and I have endeavoured to avoid such a criticism as the following Heaps about other ships, but my old barkey was one of the fastest and best known of them all and he dismisses her with a line or two. I have made rather a point of giving passage records, as they are an everlasting theme of interest when sea men get together and yarn about old ships. The memory is notoriously unreliable where sailing records are concerned, so I have been most careful to check these from logbooks and Captains' reports. Even Lloyd's I have found to be out by a day or two on occasions. A great deal of my material has. Been gathered bit by bit through the past 25 or 30 years. Alas! Many of the old timers, who so kindly lent me abstract logs and wrote me interesting letters, have now passed away.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Once Upon a Time in Rhode Island This book is published by the Society of Colonial Dames in Rhode Island for the benefit of children in Rhode Island schools, and of Rhode Island children who, though not in school, ought to know and be interested in the early history of the State. Miss Pyle has not tried to settle the many disputed points in early Rhode Island history, or to make her book in any way a systematic narrative account. Her object has been, rather, to interest her readers in the past by a series of pictures or stories, presented with all possible accuracy in matters of fact, but at the same time in language suited to young people. In such a book, tradition and imagination have their place as well as assured fact, and a story may illuminate a period more effectively than an orderly narrative. Throughout the volume, controverted questions have, for obvious rea sons, been avoided SO far as possible, and, where they could not be avoided altogether, they have been handled impartially.
