A High Wind in Jamaica, first published as The Innocent Voyage in 1929, is a classic coming-of-age novel. The story centers on the five children of the Bas-Thornton family, living on a plantation in late nineteenth-century Jamaica. Following a devastating hurricane, their parents send the children to England aboard a merchant ship which is captured by pirates shortly after the ship sets sail. What follows is an intense, gripping story of children forced to deal with difficult situations and with emotions they are not yet equipped to handle. The book is considered to have set the stage for later novels such as Lord of the Flies by William Golding, and was the subject of a 1965 movie of the same name. Included in this edition is an Introduction by Isabel Paterson and four illustrations from the 1932 edition.English author Richard Hughes (1900-1976), wrote novels, children's stories, plays, and poetry. A High Wind in Jamaica is his most famous work.

This is the definitive edition of Canadian Born, American Made, Volume 1. The author has painstakingly gone through all of his old manuscripts, notes, and scratch papers to come up with a complete volume of his memoirs from 1964 through his coming of age as a young and free Floridian in 1978. Find out how a child of 7 moves down from Canada, land of the ice and snow, to Florida, the land of sunshine and beaches and surrounded by water on three sides. And just how long does it take for a Canadian to assimilate into American culture when he has no other choice but to adjust to a way of life so strikingly different from what he was used to? It's not all fun and games, but it's not all serious business either. You'll laugh, you'll think, you'll wonder, and you might even try to put yourself in the author's place as you drift back in time to life in Florida in the late '60's and early '70's.

It is 2023 and our intrepid Cape Cod health, safety, and environmental consultants, who some call the best in the business, are continuing to travel globally to help those in everyday headlines with their S, H, & E crises. Client problems range from military to millinery; autism to engulfment; Ukraine to San Francisco's historic Cliff House; Amazon to Mexican pig farms; confined spaces to massive Texas large garbage dumps; civil war submarine health to Boston light rail safety; and all manner of issues with the world's new energy needs. Our consultants encounter people against nature, people against people, people against the dangerous machinery their own imaginations had created, people against misinformation, people against deliberate false information, people taking bad risks, and man's hubris toward outwitting obvious perils. These are all cutting-edge challenges for our savvy crew of experts. Can they make a difference? Will they make a difference? If not, how likely is the planet's future if they don't make a difference? Entertaining, informative, educational, and mostly fun reading!
