Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - In the Spring of 1776 young Sea Captain Alexander Hawkins returned to his Block Island, Rhode Island home after an extended merchant voyage. Little has gone well in his absence. His father has struggled with the family farm and Alexander's sweetheart, Rebekah, greets him with cool contempt. In addition, the political atmosphere is highly charged, as the American colonies scramble to defend their rights against the British.But there is more to the prevailing attitudes on Block Island than freedom from British oppression-many Sons of Liberty insist that freedom from British rule means freedom for all men, black as well as white. Yet, many patriots wonder about losing their profits-even some of their property-if they can no longer own slaves. Alexander stands firmly on the side of freedom for all, even as he has to maintain 'social order' with his companion as close as a brother, Nathan-a slave. This conundrum looms large in Alexander's mind and colors his decisions and behavior.In August 1776, Alexander leads a secret mission to transport arms from Rhode Island to Washington's troops under siege on Manhattan Island. His squadron enters into a British trap near the treacherous waters of Hell Gate. Who will survive and what will it take to rekindle Alexander's passion to continue the fight for freedom Stone Wall Freedom-The Islander, the second book in Tucker's remarkable trilogy, deftly picks up the threads of the original story and weaves a new one all its own. Set against the backdrop of political controversy and the people's conflicting opinions on slavery, Tucker's story is as heartrending as it is heartwarming. His inspiration for the book was drawn from the actual stone walls that crisscross the Block Island landscape, as well as the rich history of the island's inhabitants. …

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - In the year 1749, pirate Giddy Gilcox and the crew of the Rogue Flattery commandeer a Spanish galley, intent on plundering its precious cargo. Gilcox discovers, however, that the ship's hold is not filled with treasure but a human cargo of African tribal people, enslaved to work the plantations of the Americas.

The ominous feeling from the slave ship continues to haunt Gilcox.Is it possible that the cursed spirit of the slave ship is responsible for the severe nor' easter that suddenly blows in just as the pirates are preparing to leave the island Is this the end or a beginning Block Island has a history filled with legends of piracy.

That tradition is vividly portrayed in Gardens of Georgia, commissioned by the Garden Club of Georgia, Inc., to commemorate its sixtieth anniversary and to celebrate the heritage and beauty of Georgia's gardens.As noted by Georgia founder James Oglethorpe in 1732, Georgia has a happy climate. From the broad-shouldered mountains of the Blue Ridge, through the red clay of the rolling piedmont, across the sprawling piney coastal plain, and on to the subtropical islands on the Atlantic, Georgia is blessed with four regions of gardening opportunities, distinctly defined by differences in elevation, climate, soil, and natural vegetation.Writer William Mitchell and photographer Richard Moore have portrayed the wonders of gardens historic and contemporary, public and private, and urban, suburban, and rural from each of these regions. Whether illustrating overall gardenscapes or capturing intimate vignettes and individual blossoms, Richard Moore's photographs have a depth of color and clarity of detail that immerse the reader into a world of delightful splendor. The text by Willaim Mitchell not only describes the settings as they are today, but also spins a rich background of history in the context of the botanical Eden observed by early explorers.The richest legacy of each generation is to preserve and protect an always vulnerable natural environment and help nature bring forth its green and glowing cycles of rebirth. Gardens of Georgia celebrates that legacy, sharing the ongoing dream of paradise--a new Eden--whether it is in a grand formal garden from an earlier era or a small plot of perennials in a Georgia yard. ; FINE/FINE.
