    Book Details:
  • Author : William Langewiesche
  • Publisher : North Point Press
  • Release : 2010-07-20
  • ISBN : 1429954590
  • Pages : 256 pages

Download or read book The Outlaw Sea written by William Langewiesche and published by North Point Press. This book was released on 2010-07-20 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The open ocean--that vast expanse of international waters--spreads across three-fourths of the globe. It is a place of storms and danger, both natural and manmade. And at a time when every last patch of land is claimed by one government or another, it is a place that remains radically free. With typically understated lyricism, William Langewiesche explores this ocean world and the enterprises--licit and illicit--that flourish in the privacy afforded by its horizons. But its efficiencies are accompanied by global problems--shipwrecks and pollution, the hard lives and deaths of the crews of the gargantuan ships, and the growth of two pathogens: a modern and sophisticated strain of piracy and its close cousin, the maritime form of the new stateless terrorism. This is the outlaw sea that Langewiesche brings startlingly into view. The ocean is our world, he reminds us, and it is wild.

Book Dust on the Sea

    Book Details:
  • Author : Edward L. Beach
  • Publisher : Naval Institute Press
  • Release : 2014-03-15
  • ISBN : 1612515452
  • Pages : 372 pages

Download or read book Dust on the Sea written by Edward L. Beach and published by Naval Institute Press. This book was released on 2014-03-15 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1972, following the huge success of Run Silent, Run Deep, Edward L. Beach's second novel of submarine warfare was published to great acclaim. Like its predecessor, Dust on the Sea was lauded for its authentic portrayal of what it meant to be a submariner during the desperate years of World War II. Tense, dramatic and rich in technical and tactical detail, the book draws on Beach's experience as a submariner in the US Navy to describe the commander and crew of the fictitious USS Eel as they battle overwhelming odds to destroy Japanese ships and save American lives. With no margin for error, the men withstand storms, depth charges and even hand-to-hand combat to defend their boat and themselves. Mistakes, as the title reminds us, result in the debris which serves as a brief grave maker for sunken ships: dust on the sea.

Book The Silver Ship and the Sea

Download or read book The Silver Ship and the Sea written by Brenda Cooper and published by WordFire +ORM. This book was released on 2017-08-07 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Distinctive characterizations” in this sci-fi fantasy “contribute to an exciting coming-of-age story with a strong message about the evils of prejudice” (Booklist). Prisoners of a war they barely remember, Fremont’s Children must find a way to survive in a world that abhors their very nature. Or they must discover a way to leave it . . . Brenda Cooper’s Fremont’s Children series launches with her award-winning novel The Silver Ship and the Sea. Cooper explores what it means to be so different that others feel they must oppress you. Six genetically enhanced children are stranded on the colony planet Fremont in a war between genetic purists and those that would tinker with the code. Orphaned, the children have few remnants of their heritage other than an old woman who was left for abandoned at the end of the war, and a mysterious silver ship that appears to have no doors. To keep themselves alive, the children must leave the safety of the insular community and brave the beautiful but dangerous wilds of Fremont. Is it an echo of their own natures, or a proving ground of their genetic worth? In this battle of wills and principles, what does the future hold for Fremont’s Children? Winner of the Endeavor Award “An engrossing tale of six young outsiders growing up on a colony planet . . . This is an adventure story . . . But it is also a story about the relationships between insiders and outsiders . . . between people who need each other in order to survive.” —School Library Journal “Fast-paced and full-bodied, The Silver Ship and the Sea is character-driven hard SF at its best.” —The Seattle Times

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A sea serpent isn't what they thought would bring them together. Hannah Vallens is in love with her best friend, Nicholas, and has been for years. But the magic keeping them safe aboard the pirate ship, The Siren, also keeps them barren. If her dream of having children of her own is ever to come true, she must leave The Siren - forever. And Nicholas has no plans to follow her. Nicholas Ainsley loves his best friend, Hannah, with every fiber of his being, but there's no way she returns his feelings. In fact, he's pretty sure she's trying to get away from him with her talk of abandoning their protection as sailors aboard The Siren. But if Hannah leaves, her absence will transform The Siren from his home to a prison. When Nicholas falls overboard and Hannah jumps to save him, the pair finds themselves stranded and adrift in the ocean. Can they put their hearts on the line, and will it even matter if their rescue doesn’t arrive in time?
