The Adventures of Captain Horn (Classic Reprint)

Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 422
Book Description
Excerpt from The Adventures of Captain Horn The sea had become almost quiet, and there was time enough to do everything orderly and properly, and in less than three hours after the vessel had been struck, the two boats, containing all the crew and the passengers, besides a goodly quantity of provisions and water, and such valuables, clothing, rugs, and wraps as room could be found for, were pulling away from the wreck. The Captain, who, with his passengers, was in the larger boat, was aware that he was OH the coast of Peru, but that was all he certainly knew of his position. The storm had struck the ship in the morning before he had taken his daily observation, and his room, which was on deck, had been carried away and in it every nautical instrument on board. He did not believe that the storm had taken him far out of his course, but of this he could not be sure; all that he knew with certainty was that to the eastward lay the land, and eastward, therefore, they pulled, a little compass attached to the Captain's watch guard being their only guide. For the rest of that day and that night and the next day and the next night, the two boats moved eastward, the people on board suffering but little inconvenience, except from the labor of continuous rowing, at which everybody, excepting the two ladies, took part, even Ralph Markham being willing to show how much of a man he could be with an car in his hand.

Forbidden Adventures
Author: Michael Vance
Publisher: Praeger
ISBN:
Category : Comics & Graphic Novels
Languages : en
Pages : 184
Book Description
A comprehensive history of a small, but important, comic book publisher, this work reflects the reading tastes of tens of millions of Americans during the Golden and Silver ages of comics (1934-1970). The earlier Sangor Shop reinvented itself as the American Comics Group and by 1967 had published over one thousand issues. ACG was a microcosm of the larger industry, publishing magazines in every major comic book genre. Best known titles include Herbie and Forbidden Worlds. It was ACG's Adventures into the Unknown that sparked a new genre—horror—which led to the Comics Code Authority, and industry-wide self censorship.
