J o and Betty were sitting on the stone wall when the bear-boy came along the road, and their hearts had beat fast when he stopped and spoke to them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ships Across the Sea: Stories of the American Navy in the Great War Among the twelve hundred men aboard the flag ship you could have found no more ardent champion of the holiday spirit than Henry Turnbull, boat swain's mate, who was commonly called Bugs. This surging enthusiasm was illogical and unexpected. It perplexed all hands. He was a slow, stubborn per son of few words and fewer friends, mild-mannered enough unless goaded too far, when the raw-boned frame and hairy fists were a persuasive argument. When off duty he was usually reading some book from the ship's library or picked up in a second-hand shop, scowling at the pages with earnest interest and muttering the words aloud. His faithful chum, his right bower, was unlike him, of course. The peppery, quick-witted Jim Cooney was all that a petty officer ought to be a brisk little man with a blue eye that bored like a gimlet. When he rasped out a command there was no dilly dallying. He bullied Bugs Turnbull outrageously, and their quarrels diverted the gun deck, but they had been inseparable through two enlistments.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Blue Blood and Red With an itch for adventure in his own veins, Neal early decided that only timid people remained ashore, or old for gotten persons, like his grandfather Alexander Carmichael, who lived in a pillared house built by a prosperous sea faring ancestor towards the middle oi the eighteenth cen tury. This ancient homestead overlooked the bay, which had more ships upon it than a boy had the patience to count on sunny summer afternoons, when joy was calling from all quarters; from the hill moors; from the sea marshes; from the shaded benches of an old, old Mariner's Rest, where ancient gentlemen home from the sea could be prevailed upon to tell shivery tales of black ships rotting their way to the bottom of the ocean, or battening upon feebler craft in the name of skull and crossbones.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Book of the Blue Sea The Song Of The Larboard Berth When moonlight flecks the cruiser's decks And engines rumble slow, When Drake's own star is bright above And Time has gone below, They may hear who list the far-off sound Of a long-dead never-dead mirth, In the mid watch still they may hear who will The song of the Larboard Berth. In a dandy frigate or a well-found brig, In a sloop or a seventy-four, In a great First-rate with an Admiral's flag, And a hundred guns or more, In a fair light air, in a dead foul wind, At midnight or midday, Till the good ship sink her mids shall drink To the King and the King's Highway! The mids they hear - no fear, no fear! They know their own ship's ghost: Their young blood beasts to the same old song And roars to the same old toast.

Download or read book Shipmates Classic Reprint written by A. E. Loane and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-22 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Shipmates The night Byam died, his son, a stout major of marines, sat up with him. Towards morning he felt hungry and exhausted, and, thinking that his father was sleeping, helped himself to some of the fruit left by his bedside. He dropped the bunch like a pilfering schoolboy when the old man suddenly rapped his stick on the floor and shouted angrily No, you don't, sir! No, you don't. Those grapes are mine. When Byam proposed to his wife he told her that he was considered the most disagreeable man in the service, but unluckily she did not believe him until afterwards. The marriage ceremony must have been one of the shortest on record, for Shaw solemnly assured me that he took a working-party ashore at eight, and he came aboard to lunch at twelve a married man. It wasn't altogether his temper that made them unhappy, Langley told me it was that they had so little in common. Byam was a clever man in his way, and read all his life. She was not merely ill-educated. Most women - and men - are that; but if you have had any kind of an education you have some idea of your bearings, and you can Ship what you most want as you go along. She was almost illiterate. When Byam died, Shaw had to manage all her affairs for her. The Blue Marine was such a chowder-head, and the Red Marine was out of England, and the Naval Instructor was out of favour at the time the will was made, and the daughter was dead. Besides, people always find some pretext for making use of Shaw. Mrs. Byam could just manage to Sign her name while he kept his finger on the right spot to pencil a document and send it by post was utterly useless. I don't think she could do simple addition on paper, but Shaw said she was awfully keen about money matters, and could work out long calculations in her head. It distracted him if she insisted on comparing notes in the middle, but their results always tallied. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
