Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Summer on the Borders of the Caribbean Sea The free colored American, of whatever Shade, Sees that his destiny is linked with slavery. Where his face is a crime he can not hepe for justice. In the country which enslaves his race he can never be an acknowledged man. That it is his native country does not help him. The author of this hook is an American as much as James Buchanan. He is more so: for the father of Mr. Buchanan was born in Ireland, and the father of Mr. Harris was born in North Carolina. But the one becomes president; the other is officially declared to have no rights which white men are bound to respect.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Spanish Main: Or Thirty Days on the Caribbean I Was born in the City of New York, and spent nearly the whole of the early part of my life in that great metropolis. In my school-boy days it was my infinite delight to roam and linger along the docks and watch the stately ships as they came and went, or as they lay at their piers discharging or taking in cargo. As I gazed at the tapering masts and spars and saw the sailors running up and down the shrouds and ratlins like squirrels, or clinging to the cross-yards like spiders on a wall, I wished that I could be a sailor. But as I grew older, and by education came to know the hardships and privations of a sailor's life as well as its perils, and more especially as I reflected upon his necessitated seclusion from the society of those he dearly loves, and which tends so much toward making up the sum of human happiness, I was easily persuaded to relinquish the desire to adopt a seafaring life. But my love for the ocean and my longings to visit foreign shores grew no less as the years sped on. I fed my passion on the entrancing sea novels of Cooper and Maryatt.

Download or read book The Spanish Galleon written by Charles Sumner Seeley and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-09-16 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Spanish Galleon: Being an Account of a Search for Sunken Treasure in the Caribbean Sea As I lay with my face turned toward the sea, listening in despair to the soft, monotonous lip-lipping of the waves, varied at regular intervals by the long, foaming crash of the swell as it broke and swept up the sands, there came presently in the eastern sky a faint silvery glow, and the full moon stole up from out the glistening water until it shone full and broad, making a burnished path down to the shore at my feet. N o doubt, this saved my life. In an hour it was almost as light as day. I untied my shoes, which I had fastened to the chest while swimming, put them on to guard my feet, and started in search of drinking-water. Fortunately it was close at hand. A little brook flowed down to the sea not more than forty rods to the north of my landing-place. Had I been in condition to remember anything, I should have known this fact, because while floating in the sea I noted this stream by the low foliage that marked its course near the beach, and longed for a draught of the water which I knew must be there. Stumbling along the sands, I reached the stream, and lying down, buried my face in the clear, sweet water, and drank until I could drink no more. This was possibly an imprudent thing to do. Indeed it was followed by dreadful nausea. But this did not hinder me from taking another draught, almost as deep as the first.

These were cruel scenes, and crueller sufferings on the route across Panama, where every inch has been stained with blood; and could the ghosts of those who died on that route rise again to mock the living, the scenes they could con J u're up might not be well en dured.
