Download or read book Sam Steele s Adventures on Land and Sea written by L. Frank Baum and published by Graphic Arts Books. This book was released on 2022-01-11 with total page 101 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sam Steele’s Adventures on Land and Sea (1906) is a novel by L. Frank Baum. Although he is more widely known as the author of the Land of Oz series, Baum also used several pseudonyms to make forays into more conventional fiction for young adults. Sam Steele’s Adventures on Land and Sea, written under the pen name “Capt. Hugh Fitzgerald,” is a story of discovery, betrayal, fortune, and adventure. “An orphan, now, and alone in the world. This father whom the angry seas had engulfed was the only relative I had known since my sweet little mother wearied of the world and sought refuge in Heaven, years and years ago.” Having already lost his mother as a boy, sixteen year old Sam Steele faces tragedy once more. His father’s ship, the Saracen, was lost at sea near the Lucayan Archipelago, leaving just one sailor alive. All that remains of Captain Steele are his watch, his ring, and a son who never had the chance to say goodbye. Soon, Sam is cut off from his rightful inheritance by Mrs. Ranck, his guardian. Alone in the world, without a penny to his name, Sam reconnects with his maternal uncle Naboth, a sea captain preparing to sail from San Francisco to join the Klondike Gold Rush. Together, they journey into the vast Pacific, where fortune and danger await. While Sam Steele’s Adventures on Land and Sea is far from the fantasy and fairy tale style most of Baum’s readers adore him for, it remains an entertaining work of adventure fiction for devoted fans of the Oz series and newcomers alike. With a beautifully designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of L. Frank Baum’s Sam Steele’s Adventures on Land and Sea is a classic of American literature reimagined for modern readers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Library of Universal Adventure by Sea and Land: Including Original Narratives and Authentic Stories of Personal Prowess and Peril in All the Waters and Regions of the Globe From the Year 79 A. D. To the Year 1888 A. D A casual glance at the contents and their arrangement will give some no tion Of the variety and extent of the work. For the sake of clearness we have distributed the material geographically, and in each division we have given the narratives a chronological sequence, so that the volume is in some sort at once a map and a history, fragmentary of course, but useful, we be lieve, to any reader wishing to place in time and space the great adventurers whose names occur in the stories Of nations. It was part of the pleasure we took in our work that these adventures, which seemed so fragmentary and detached, became more and more distinctly parts of the common life Of the race; and we hope that with the help Of the plan we have adopted, with the dates and the divisions we have used, it will have the same interest for our readers. At the same time we feel that the apparently desultory succession of the narratives will contribute to the delight of those who like to vary the excitements purveyed to them, and who may read the book in sequence with the certainty of a continual change in the character of its contents, from adventure to adventure, although these follow one another in each division with due regard to the order of their occurrence in point of time.

Download or read book Child of a Hidden Sea written by A. M. Dellamonica and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 2014-06-24 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Child of a Hidden Sea by A.M. Dellamonica is a rousing tale of adventure and adversity, politics and personal trials One minute, twenty-four-year-old Sophie Hansa is in a San Francisco alley trying to save the life of the aunt she has never known. The next, she finds herself flung into the warm and salty waters of an unfamiliar world. Glowing moths fall to the waves around her, and the sleek bodies of unseen fish glide against her submerged ankles. The world is Stormwrack, a series of island nations with a variety of cultures and economies—and a language different from any Sophie has heard. Sophie doesn't know it yet, but she has just stepped into the middle of a political firestorm, and a conspiracy that could destroy a world she has just discovered...her world, where everyone seems to know who she is, and where she is forbidden to stay. But Sophie is stubborn, and smart, and refuses to be cast adrift by people who don't know her and yet wish her gone. With the help of a sister she has never known, and a ship captain who would rather she had never arrived, she must navigate the shoals of the highly charged politics of Stormwrack, and win the right to decide for herself whether she stays in this wondrous world...or is doomed to exile.
