Download or read book South Sea Settlers Classic Reprint written by J. R. Grey and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-05 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from South Sea Settlers Much has been written about the South Sea Islands. Most of it consists of the romantic vapourings of young men, Who talk only of the wonderfully beautiful women and the lotus-eating life led by the entire population or else it consists of spiteful and scandalous stories of those people who were the kindest and most hospitable to the authors. Feeling, therefore, that the time has come to write of the islands from the point of View of people who lead an everyday existence in them, We have given a true account of our own experiences there. There is so much charm and beauty that, to our minds, there is no need to try to enhance it by regarding native girls - at whom one would not look twice if they had white skins - as creatures of celestial beauty. If there were not a native left in the islands, their charm would remain the same. It lies in the peace that envelops these lazy lands, where Nature is at her most smiling, and where she has given only of her best: she has kept her evil beasts for less fortunate climes. These are lovely islands, set in a calm blue sea, while, overhead, soft white clouds chase one another across the sky and temper the heat of the tropical.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from White Shadows in the South Seas It is not given to every man to start on the quest of the rainbow's end. Such fantastic pursuit is not for him who is bound by ties of home and duty and fortune to-make. He has other adventure at his own door, sterner fights to wage, and, perhaps, higher rewards to gain. Still, the ledgers close sometimes on a sigh, and by the cosiest fireside one will see in the coals pictures that have nothing to do with wedding rings or balances at the bank.

Download or read book Adventures in the South Seas Classic Reprint written by C. H. Watson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-26 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Adventures in the South Seas Many of those who oppose the work of evangelizing hea then races assert that a people found in heathenism are better left as they happen to be when discovered. This amazing allegation has sometimes been made even in relation to the wild tribes of the South Seas. T 0 take such a position is to acknowledge that for these island peoples unrestrained murder is better than the enjoyment of life under conditions of peace and safety; that unrelieved misery is better than joy and happiness, secured to them by an ordered govern ment; that enslaving fear is better than the confiding trust that now marks their intertribal and interisland relationships; that the intrenched superstitions of idol and demon worship are better than the comforts and blessings of the Christian faith; that their former loathsome depravity is better than the comparative refinement and elevation of their present condition; that brutalized immorality is better than gospel morality; and that their former terribly dwarfed mentality is better than their present enlightenment and remarkable mental development. These assertions seldom come from those who are not actively opposed to the application of gospel principles in these islands. The mental awakening which invariably fol iows the renouncement of heathenism and the acceptance of the gospel by these native races, is neither wanted nor encouraged by those who maintain such an attitude. Such persons are opposed to the assertion of gospel power any where. Therefore, they are opposed to its asserting itself in the South Sea Islands. Their purpose is selfish. Their attitude is preposterous. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Ebbing of the Tide: South Sea Stories A boy and a girl sat by the rocky margin of a deep mountain pool in Ponape in the North Pacific. The girl was weaving a basket from the leaves of a cocoanut. As she wove she sang the "Song of Luliban," and the boy listened intently. "'Tis a fine song that thou singest, Niya," said the boy, who came from Metalanien and was a stranger; "and who was Luliban, and Red-Hair the White Man?" "O Guk!" said Niya, wonderingly, "hast never heard in Metalanien of Luliban, she who dived with one husband and came up with another - in this very pool?" "What new lie is this thou tellest to the boy because he is a stranger?" said a White Man, who lay resting in the thick grass waiting for the basket to be finished, for the three were going further up the mountain stream to catch crayfish. "Lie?" said the child; "nay, 'tis no lie. Is not this the Pool of Luliban, and do not we sing the 'Song of Luliban, ' and was not Red-Hair the White Man - he that lived in Jakoits and built the big sailing boat for Nanakin, the father of Nanakin, my father, the chief of Jakoits?"
