The Cruise of the Dry Dock (Classic Reprint) by T. S. Stribling Pdf

Excerpt from The Cruise of the Dry Dock "She's movin'!" cried a voice from the crowd on the wharfside. "Watch 'er! Watch 'er!" A dull English cheer rippled over the waterfront. "Blarst if I see why she moves!" marveled an onlooker. "That tug looks like a water bug 'itched to a 'ouse-boat - it's hunreasonable!" "Aye, but they're tur'ble stout, them tugs be," argued a companion. "It's hunreasonable, just the same, 'Enry!" "Everything's hunreasonable at sea, 'Arry. W'y w'en chaps put to sea they tell w'ere they're at by lookin' at th' sun." "Aw! An' not by lookin' at th' map?" "By lookin' at th' sun, 'pon honor!" "Don't try to jolly me like that, 'Enry, me lad; that's more hunreasonable than this." About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

The Cruise of the Dry Dock (Esprios Classics) by T. S. Stribling Pdf

Thomas Sigismund Stribling (March 4, 1881 - July 8, 1965) was an American writer and lawyer who published under the name T.S . Stribling. He won the Pulitzer Prize for the Novel in 1933 for his novel The Store. After moving to Nashville, Tennessee in 1907, Stribling picked up a job at the Taylor-Trotwood Magazine as a writer and salesman of ads and subscriptions and as "a sort of sublimated office boy." (Kunitz, 1359) It was at the magazine that Stribling had two works of fiction published: The Imitator and The Thrall of the Green, both reflecting the social themes for which he would later become renowned.

A Cruise on the Constitution by Benjamin F. Stevens Pdf

Excerpt from A Cruise on the Constitution: Around the World on Old Ironsides 1844 to 1847 After a pleasant journey of three days, I arrived at the town of Portsmouth (opposite to Norfolk), and took lodgings at the Craw ford House, where Captain Percival had taken rooms. On visiting the navy yard on Thursday, the 16th inst, I found Old Ironsides in the dry dock undergoing the operation of scraping, and having new copper put on where the old had been torn away. From the above date until the middle of April, 1844, the sound of the mallet and chisel was heard without intermission, and during this period of five months over of the public money was ex pended upon this favorite ship.

Pulp Classics by John Betancourt Pdf

The March 1930 issue of the rare pulp magazine SUBMARINE STORIES, which lasted for thirteen issues and so must count as one of the more successful of the hyper-specialized pulps. Long prized by collectors as a curiosity, too scarce and valuable to be actually read, it turns out to be quite an entertaining magazine, containing stories by such pulp stalwarts as George Fielding Eliot (author of the grisly WEIRD TALES classic "The Copper Bowl") and Alan R. Bosworth, a prolific pulp writer who appeared in everything from ARGOSY to UNKNOWN WORLDS. Here too is a vivid first-hand account of undersea warfare by a genuine German U-boat captain.
