Anotace knihy

Excerpt from The Mystery The late afternoon Sky daunted its splendour of blue and gold like a banner over the Pacific, across whose depths the trade wind droned in measured cadence. On the ocean's wide expanse a hulk wallowed slug gishly, the forgotten relict of a once brave and sightly ship, possibly the Sphinx of some untold ocean tragedy, She lay black and forbidding in the ordered procession of waves. Half a mile to the east of the derelict hovered a ship's cutter, the turn of her crew's heads speaking expectancy. As far again beyond, the United States cruiser Wolverine outlined her severe and trim silhouette against the horizon. In all the spread of wave and sky no other thing was visible. For this was one of the desert parts of the Pacific, three hundred miles north of the steamship route from Yokohama to Honolulu, five hundred miles from the nearest land, Gardner Island, and more than seven hundred northwest of the Hawaiian group. On the cruiser's quarter-deck the Officers lined the starboard rail. Their interest was focussed on the derelict. Looks like a heavy job, said Ives, one of the junior lieutenants. These żoaters that lie with deck almost awash will stand more hammering than a mud fort. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
