Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "... I am now busy winding up everything and will leave London about the 23rd inst. for Falmouth from whence I shall sail in the packet the first week in October and be with you, I hope, in November, perhaps about the 14th, my birthday, so you must have a roast goose ready. The packet, being well manned and provided will be more commodious and safe for an autumn passage, and I think there will be little or no risk; at least I prefer taking all the risk there is to idling here a winter. But although there is not much risk, yet accidents may happen, and that the produce of my studies and experience may not be lost to my country, I have made out a complete set of drawings and descriptions of my whole system of submarine attack....

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Torpedo War, and Submarine Explosions N View of the prominent part played in the present World War by torpedoes and submarines, the subject of our extra N 0. 35 is peculiarly timely. The original of 1810 is very scarce, only one copy having been sold at auction in many years: nor are copies to be found in any but a few of our libraries. Fulton's claims for his invention have been fully substantiated and some of his predictions, made more than a century ago, are remarkably interesting, in view of the events of the past five months. His estimate of our population in 1920 has already been exceeded in fact, and only his plan of affix ing torpedoes to their prey by means of harpoons seems - for it was made in the days of wooden ships - fantastic, in these days of iron clads. He could not foresee that almost exactly a century would elapse before his invention would be extensively used though he cautiously says it is impossible to foresee to what de gree torpedoes may be improved and rendered useful. In the J oline collection of autograph letters, sold this month, was an extremely interesting letter of Fulton's, addressed to Gen. William Duane. A part reads.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Facts About the Submarine Service The Submarine Service is distinctly American both in tra dition and in spirit. History records that the genius of American science created the modern submarine. It is as American as the telegraph, the airplane, the dive bomber and the carrier. Although submersible craft had been in development for thousands of years, four Americans, David Bushnell, Robert Fulton, John Philip Holland and Simon Lake, comprised the coterie of inventors who transformed ancient dreams into an effective and practical underseas craft.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Robert Fulton, an Historical Novel The idea which is the basis of this work, is mainly the same as that of my drama. The Youth of Tycho Brahe, which is to be considered an offspring of this production - this being, as well in its plan as in its execution, older than that. Nevertheless, I believe. That the difference between these two works is so great, that they have nothing in common but the principal features of the leading idea. But.this is just the peculiarity of an idea that it comprehends in itself an infinitude to be unfolded in different shapes, like the type which constitutes the basis of diverse natural processes. Any idea, for instance that of liberty, love, etc. Can, there fore, be represented in very different artistical productions. This can also be done in representing the struggles, which a mind and genius of peculiar structure encounters in paving for itself a new career, which is the case in this work, and I believe, I may even add, that the narrative form is here more suitable than the dramatic, as being in closer corres pondence with the development of the mental process.

Download or read book The Clammer and the Submarine Classic Reprint written by William John Hopkins and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-11-10 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Clammer and the Submarine From the bench built against the trunk one can see many things: the harbor, and the Opposite shore, and rolling country beyond, and distant hills, and one hill in particular with a tree upon it like a cross, which stands out, at certain seasons, right against the disc of the setting sun. One can see, too, the waters of the bay beyond the harbor, and certain clam beds just at the point, and a certain water front; and other things in their season. Old Goodwin's palace on the hill is not visible, except for a glimpse of red roofs above the t0ps of the trees. There is one other thing which I almost forgot to mention, and that is a hole s000ped in the ground just without the shadow of the pine, and lined with great stones. That stone-lined hole has its uses, but the time for them is not yet. I was sitting on the seat under my old pine, gazing out but seeing noth ing of what lay before my eyes. And that was strange, too, for the harbor before me was smiling under a warm spring sun, and the hills beyond were bathed in the blue mist of summer. Indeed, it seemed like summer. There will be cold weather in plenty, with skies gray and wet. There is always more than enough of such weather in the first half of May, but that day seemed like summer. I had had hard work to realize that it was April until I looked about me and saw the grass just greening in the moist and sheltered spots, and the trees spreading their bare arms abroad. The buds were just swel ling, some of them showing a faint pale green or pink at their tips. And my garden was nothing but freshly turned brown earth, not a spear of green.
