Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Against Wind and Tide, Vol. 1 of 3 Playing truant again, I suppose, said the schoolmaster, and went on calling over the roll. He had played truant himself when he was a boy, and remembered the sweetness Of stolen delights, - also, he remembered the penalty, - also, he was in the habit Of exacting it in full from the present generation Of delinquents who transgressed his rules. He therefore straightened his cane and laid it handy across his desk, while Robert noted the familiar, ominous preparations and shuddered. It was a parody on Justice whetting her sword. Cyrus was a favourite with the master, but favour did not blunt the edge Of the inevitable stroke; the lad's palm was well acquainted with the sting Of a hander, and his idle shoulders had writhed many a time under a vigorous lacing from the supple cane. King Solomon's precept was in high authority at this date, and in full practice also; but even as with young Rehoboam, it proved a failure with Cyrus Hawthorne. There are some vices that cannot be beaten out Of a boy, and Cyrus's tendency to play truant on sunshiny mornings was one Of these ingrain vices.

Download or read book Against the Tide written by Cornelia Dean and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 1999-05-19 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Americans love to colonize their beaches. But when storms threaten, high-ticket beachfront construction invariably takes precedence over coastal environmental concerns—we rescue the buildings, not the beaches. As Cornelia Dean explains in Against the Tide, this pattern is leading to the rapid destruction of our coast. But her eloquent account also offers sound advice for salvaging the stretches of pristine American shore that remain. The story begins with the tale of the devastating hurricane that struck Galveston, Texas, in 1900—the deadliest natural disaster in American history, which killed some six thousand people. Misguided residents constructed a wall to prevent another tragedy, but the barrier ruined the beach and ultimately destroyed the town's booming resort business. From harrowing accounts of natural disasters to lucid ecological explanations of natural coastal processes, from reports of human interference and construction on the shore to clear-eyed elucidation of public policy and conservation interests, this book illustrates in rich detail the conflicting interests, short-term responses, and long-range imperatives that have been the hallmarks of America's love affair with her coast. Intriguing observations about America's beaches, past and present, include discussions of Hurricane Andrew's assault on the Gulf Coast, the 1962 northeaster that ravaged one thousand miles of the Atlantic shore, the beleaguered beaches of New Jersey and North Carolina's rapidly vanishing Outer Banks, and the sand-starved coast of southern California. Dean provides dozens of examples of human attempts to tame the ocean—as well as a wealth of lucid descriptions of the ocean's counterattack. Readers will appreciate Against the Tide's painless course in coastal processes and new perspective on the beach.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Against Wind and Tide, Vol. 2 of 3 Sir Philip Nugent's glance followed the sweep Of Lady Lowther's hand, and paused, at last, upon the laughing face of Phyllis. When Phyllis laughed, She had a pretty way of throwing back her head, a gesture which displayed the smooth whiteness and exquisite setting on of her neck; then She opened her mouth, and disclosed two tiny even rows of pearls, shining in an arch of vivid coral, and the laugh rang out soft and clear as a peal of bells over her pouting lips. Sir Philip's glance, pausing on this bright vision, lingered there half absently. Lady Eleanor con tinned to rhapsodize, and forgave him that he did not listen. She was a woman of the world, worldly - also, she was a mother with three daughters to marry. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Rising Tide The street was very quiet, - except when the barber's children squabbled shrilly, or Baker's livery-stable sent out a few funeral hacks, or when, from a barred window in the ell Of the Payton house, there came a noisy laugh. And always, on the half-hour, the two mules went tinkling along, their neat little feet cupping down over the cobble stones, and their trace-chains swinging and sagging about their heels. The conductor on the car had been on the route so long that he knew many Of his patrons, and nodded to them in a friendly way, and said it was a good day, or too cold for the season; occasionally he imparted information which he thought might be Of interest to them. On this October afternoon of brown fog and occasional dashes Of rain he enlightened a lady with a vaguely sweet face, who signaled him to stop at no. 15. Miss Payton's out, he said, pulling the strap over his head and bringing his car to a standstill; but her ma's at home. I brought the Old lady back on my last trip, just as Miss Freddy was starting Off with that pup Of hers. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Against the Tide written by Lincoln Chafee and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 2010-07-01 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this smart, candid, and surprising political memoir, Lincoln Chafee offers a behind-the-scenes look at the first six years of the Bush Administration from the vantage point of one of the few Republican moderates in the Senate. When Senator Chafee (R-RI) went to Washington, he encountered a Republican Party drifting so far to the right it no longer stood for the mainstream principles that united Americans. Instead, under the direction of George W. Bush, the Party had fallen victim to extremism. In the face of this trend, Chafee stood fast as one of the most liberal Republicans in the Senate, seeking to cut across partisan lines at the very time that they threatened to irrevocably divide the nation. A political iconoclast, Chafee was the only Republican senator to have expressed support for same-sex marriage; the only Republican to vote in favor of reinstating the top federal tax rate on upper-income payers; the only Republican in the Senate to have voted against authorization of the use of force in Iraq; the only Republican to vote for the Levin-Reed amendment calling for a nonbinding timetable for a withdrawal of U.S. troops from Iraq; and the only Republican to vote against Supreme Court nominee Samuel Alito. Chafee favored increased federal funding for health care, supported affirmative action and gun control, supported women's reproductive rights, and endorsed federal funding for embryonic stem cell research. Sometimes referred to by conservatives as a RINO (Republican in Name Only), Chafee turns the tables on the right and asks why it has enabled Bush Jr. to pull the GOP and the nation away from traditional principles of fiscal conservatism, respect for our environment, and aversion to foreign entanglements. Unabashedly frank, Chafee's memoir recounts his political journey from small-town mayor to a voice crying from the congressional wilderness. He offers a forward-looking assessment of what comes next for the Republican and Democratic parties, and he also addresses the potential rise of a third party within the void created by bipartisan extremism. Most important, Chafee sounds a wake-up call to his Party, and to all Americans, by challenging our government to strive, as Abraham Lincoln once articulated, "to elevate the condition of men."
