Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Through Tropic Seas NE of the real pleasures of my life has been the reading of the manuscript of the story presented to the public in the following pages. An additional interest in the tales, the legends, and the romances of the South Sea Islands, as the combined South Pacific Groups are designated, is afforded by the graphic description of their inhabitants now given us by Mr. Burnett, who sees with the eye of an Ethnologist, Antiquarian, and Artist, hears with the ear of a Student, talks with the tongue, and writes with the pen of a Philosopher. He reproduces what he has observed, in a somewhat extended tour, by the portrayal of the natives in their various aspects and conditions of life and his picture is Vitalized and Vivid. There is no attempt to impart a false glow or gloss to the narrative, or to obscure, for reasons of prudish sacrosanctity traits of the habits of the people While the nuda veritas of their sartorial customs is stated in the text, and illustrated by the pictures, in a manner which defies the onslaught of those who would expurgate the sacred writings because of their contravention of some modern conceptions of diurnal decorum. The inhabitants of the various groups of island lying in the South Pacific Ocean, are a marvel to mankind, and a study worthy of every investigator of the origin and destiny of the human race.

Download or read book Mary s Voyage written by Mary Caldwell and published by Sheridan House, Inc.. This book was released on 2008 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most successful sailing stories ever written is Desperate Voyage by John Caldwell. In this book, John, stranded penniless in Panama after World War II, sets out for Sydney to rejoin his wife Mary whom he had not seen since their three-day honeymoon over a year before. His famous book tells of the adventurous journey in a twenty-foot boat. Now, almost sixty years later, Mary tells her own story in this fascinating biography. Born in England, Mary immigrated with her family to Australia where she spent her early youth on a farm. As a young woman she served in the Australian Air Force. During the war she met Tex (future husband John Caldwell), a young cocky American who became the inspirational mainspring for her adventures. In 1952, after living in California for several years, Mary and John and their children became the first family to attempt a voyage around the world on a small sailing craft using only a sextant and dead reckoning to guide them across thousands of miles of ocean. Mary was pregnant at the beginning of the voyage and already had a toddler and an infant son in tow. Months would pass without sight of land. She gave birth to her youngest son in Tahiti, weathered constant seasickness and survived frightening ocean storms, several hurricanes, and a tsunami. Mary and John finally settled in the Grenadines where they built the world-renowned Palm Island resort. Mary¿s story of endurance and fearlessness is remarkable and inspiring.
