Book The Book of the West Indies  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Book of the West Indies Classic Reprint written by Francis Dodsworth and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-07-19 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Book of the West Indies Grenada, St. Lucia, and St. Thomas all possess hand books, short, concise, and handy in size, but Dominica and St. Vincent have not yet produced any of the kind. Of literature dealing with the West Indies generally there is enough and to spare. And the easy grace and fearless recklessness with which writers discourse upon West Indian matters has for many years been a living source of wonder to the West Indians themselves. Froude, Bulkley, Sewell, Walker, are but four out of many people who have written on the subject. The West Indian opinion of Froude is perhaps better left unprinted. But the indignation which he aroused in 1889 and 1890 is amusingly put by J. J. Thomas in a work entitled Froudacity, or West Indian Fables by James Anthony F roude, explained by J. J.

Book The West Indies  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The West Indies Classic Reprint written by Charles H. Eden and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-09 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The West Indies In the following pages I have endeavoured to lay before the reader a sketch of the West India Islands from the time of their discovery to the present date. Regarded in a purely historical light, the annals of the Antilles are fraught with the deepest interest; for they portray most painfully the debasement consequent on slavery - a moral deterioration not confined to the wretched victims of an odious system, but exercising an equally pernicious influence on the ruling class, to whatever nationality they belonged. Spaniards, Frenchmen, and Englishmen have all been guilty of terrible excesses in that fair quarter of the globe; but, while betraying just indignation at the cruelties perpetrated by other nations, I have made no unfair effort to gloss over the deeds of my own countrymen.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Storied West Indies Assuming that no literary work is considered Complete without its proem, or introduction, this shall be my excuse for narrating how this particular book came into being. I can hardly claim that it was by chance; yet it resulted indirectly from my first visit to the West Indies, in 1877, when, as an ornithologist ardently in love with Nature, I went there in search of birds. My self-imposed task took me into the forests and mountains, to dwell with the Carib Indians and negroes, as well as with the white cultivators of the coast plantations. From them I obtained a great deal of information that seemed to me of value, aside from that relevant to the subject of my investiga tions.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from At Last: A Christmas in the West Indies It took a Couple of days to arrange our little cabin Penates; to discover who was on board; and a couple of days, too, to become aware, in spite of sudden starts of anxiety, that there was no post, and could be none; that one could not be wanted, or, if one was wanted, found and caught and it was not till the fourth morning that the glorious sense of freedom dawned on the mind, as through the cabin port the sunrise shone in, yellow and wild through ying showers, and great north-eastern waves raced past us, their heads torn off in spray, their broad backs laced with ripples, and each, as it passed, gave us a friendly onward lift away into the roaring forties, as the sailors call the stormy seas between 50 and 40 degrees of latitude.
