Book excerpt: The schooner Seamew, of London, Captain Wilson master and owner, had just finished loading at Northfleet with cement for Brittlesea. Every inch of space was packed. Cement, exuded from the cracks, imparted to the hairy faces of honest seamen a ghastly appearance sadly out of keeping with their characters, and even took its place, disguised as thickening, among the multiple ingredients of a sea-pie that was cooking for dinner. It was not until the decks were washed and the little schooner was once more presentable that the mate gave a thought to his own toilet. It was a fine, warm morning in May, and some of the cargo had got into his hair and settled in streaks on his hot, good-humored face. The boy had brought aft a wooden bucket filled with fair water, and placed upon the hatch by its side a piece of yellow soap and a towel. Upon these preparations the mate smiled pleasantly, and throwing off his shirt and girding his loins with his braces, he bent over and with much zestful splashing began his ablutions.

Download or read book Backroads to Bethlehem written by William Smither and published by Abbott Press. This book was released on 2018-02-28 with total page 493 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is 1693, during the waning days of a militaristic, fugitive slave village in northeastern Brazil and the widening landscape of Maroon Wars in Jamaica. There exists a patchwork of shared morality and beliefs among the myriad mix of West African tribes and the indigenous peoples of Latin America and the Caribbean. In Colonial Brazil, the beliefs of various Taino Indian and West African blend, influenced by nearby Jesuit Orders such as the St. Raphael Mission. This contributes to the Maroon culture’s interpretations of burial customs and visitations of “shadow people” or spiritual presences. Later, in Jamaica, as with ancient West African and Ashanti cultures, the silk cotton tree plays an important role in the village of Akrafena and the Casa Cadiz Plantation. From the Nine Night ceremony and beliefs in survival after death to roaming spirits of the dead, the tree—also called the Spirit Tree, God Tree, and Devil Tree—emits evil spells as well as spiritual inspiration for prevailing forces that drive the various Maroon characters and conflict. Inspired by actual events, this novel offers a portrait of sustained and conscionable slave rebellion in Colonial Brazil and Jamaica at the cultural crossroads of myth and reality.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 'The Skipper's Wooing, and The Brown Man's Servant', W. W.

Set in the late 19th century England, Jacobs' stories provide a glimpse into the lives of ordinary people facing extraordinary circumstances.

The narratives are rich in detail and offer a nuanced commentary on the social dynamics of the time. W. W. Jacobs, a prolific English writer known for his dark humor and keen insight into human nature, drew inspiration from his own experiences growing up in a maritime community. His background lends authenticity and depth to his depictions of characters and settings in 'The Skipper's Wooing, and The Brown Man's Servant'. Jacobs' ability to capture the essence of everyday life with poignancy and humor sets him apart as a storyteller of great talent. I highly recommend 'The Skipper's Wooing, and The Brown Man's Servant' to readers seeking thought-provoking insights into the human condition, as well as fans of classic English literature. Jacobs' skillful storytelling and keen observations make this collection a must-read for those interested in exploring the complexities of society and relationships in a bygone era.
