Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Henry Hudson, the Navigator Henry Hudson is known to most educated men as the discoverer of Hudson's River, Hudson's Strait, and Hudson's Bay. Very few persons, however, have tried to obtain a more intimate knowledge of this remarkable character. Yet, besides the importance of his voyages, his career offers a great and unique moral interest. More than any other man Hudson has identified himself with one sole idea, in the service of which he laboured with matchless heroism. All these valiant efforts were in vain, and led him to a frightful martyrdom. And yet he owes to these same fruitless achievements a justly-earned renown, greater than that at which he aimed. Hudson's one idea, to discover a short route to Asia by the North, was not of Hudson's creation. It owed, in various shapes, its origin to that great and all but unknown man, Sebastian Cabot, the discoverer of the mainland of America, and the founder of England's maritime power. A large amount of glorious enterprise had already, in 1607, been produced by his plans; and by the voyages his ideas gave rise to the names of John and Sebastian Cabot, of Cortereal, Verazzano, Gomez, Davis, Willoughby, Chancellor, Barents, Heemskerk, Linschoten, and many others of minor note, had become historical. All these labours, however, and those of Hudson's like them, were doomed to be fruitless as regarded their main purpose, for their object is beyond the reach of man. All the short northern routes to Asia are blocked up by permanent icefields, and can therefore never become practicable for ships. Yet, in spite of their fruitlessness, these bold ventures belong to the most important events that history records.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Summer and Winter on Hudson Bay In a geological expedition to Hudson Bay in the summer of 1909, the writers saw and experienced so much that was new and strange and interesting, that it seems worth while to write a narrative of the ex pedition, principally as a matter of record, but partly also in response to the kind interest expressed by friends in parts of the story which they have heard. It is a plain account of things and events, thrown together from miscellaneous notes, diaries and memories, with little claim to literary form or finish.

The text is clari fied by a far fuller use Of diagrams than in other works Of similar scope, for the author believes in graphic ex planations whenever these are possible.

The endeavor has been made to use simple language and to avoid mathematical abstractions and exercises that are of little practical value to the navigator.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Hudson River, by Pen and Pencil: For Tourists and Others The traveler, indeed, should remember that effects of scenery depend very much upon the hour in which they are seen, and the conditions of the sky. A really grand mountain looks dwarfed at mid day, with the sun pouring down a blaze of light upon it, without a shadow to relieve its surface; the same mountain towers nobly with the sun shining behind it, and its top purpling in the twilight. On cloudy days, mountains and hills take a monotonous gray, and lose that brilliant vivacity which on a fair day shadow and sheen will give them. No one, in truth, knows what any scene really is for beauty. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
