Excerpt from The Moral Power of the Sea: An Inquiry Into the True Relations of Commerce to the Evangelization of the World So it was through all the rise and fall of empires, for thousands of years the same, up to the time when that restless and energetic race, the Arab, began to seek other paths, and make the sea the road over which he could reach the distant lands with which he trafficked. Then the Indian Ocean came to be known, and commerce began to assume to itself the idea of the sea. But, even then, it was the ocean, not in its broad expanse, but as it touched the land. The observant trader had learned to make the track of the monsoons, and soon turned them to his service. He noticed that one half the year the wind blew steadily from the southwest, and for the other half from the northwest. In the spring or summer months he would put out with his spices and his fruits from his peninsular home. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
