Book excerpt: William Henry "Bully" Hayes (1827 or 1829 - 31 March 1877) was a notorious American ship's captain who engaged in blackbirding in the 1860s and 1870s. Hayes operated across the breadth of the Pacific Ocean from the 1850s until his murder on 31 March 1877. He has been described as a South Sea pirate and "the last of the buccaneers". It is almost impossible to separate fact from legend regarding Hayes. He was a cheap swindler, a bully, a con-artist, a thief and a bigamist. Hayes was a large man who used intimidation against his crew. This book "Bully Hayes the Blackbirder" traces his watery paths, from early ship's captain to China and throughout the Pacific islands, with intrigue and historical interest for readers and armchair adventurers.

  • Publisher : Dial Press Trade Paperback
  • Release : 2016-05-10
  • ISBN : 0812986865
  • Pages : 401 pages

Download or read book Rascals in Paradise written by James A. Michener and published by Dial Press Trade Paperback. This book was released on 2016-05-10 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a thrilling collection of nonfiction adventure stories, James A. Michener returns to the most dazzling place on Earth: the islands that inspired Tales of the South Pacific. Co-written with A. Grove Day, Rascals in Paradise offers portraits of ten scandalous men and women, some infamous and some overlooked, including Sam Comstock, a mutinous sailor whose delusions of grandeur became a nightmare; Will Mariner, a golden-haired youth who used his charm to win over his captors; and William Bligh, the notorious HMS Bounty captain who may not have been the monster history remembers him as. From lifelong buccaneers to lapsed noblemen, in Michener and Day’s capable hands these rogues become the stuff of legend. Praise for Rascals in Paradise “The best book about those far-scattered islands that has appeared in a long time . . . a portfolio of rare and ruthless personalities that is calculated to make the curliest hair stand straight on end.”—The New York Times “[Combines] research and scholarship (A. Grove Day was a professor at the University of Hawaii) with a gift for spinning a yarn and depicting character (Michener, journalist and novelist, needs no introduction).”—Kirkus Reviews

Book Lord Jim

Download or read book Lord Jim written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2023-06-05 with total page 149 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Lord Jim: Centennial Essays" features eight essays by major Conrad scholars to celebrate the centenary of the publication of what is possibly Joseph Conrad's best known novel. This carefully edited volume covers a wide range of topics, and includes new work on the novel's reception and sources, narrative strategies, and thematic interests. Various contemporary critical approaches - Bakhtinian, postcolonial, and historicist - are aired and reconsidered, and a generous selection of documents relating to the Jeddah affair of 1880 sheds light on Conrad's use of real-life materials. The kaleidoscopic perspectives brought to bear on this landmark of literary Modernism will stimulate and challenge both scholars and students alike.
