O knihe
Excerpt from The Rescue: A Romance of the Shallows
Misunderstood and traduocd in life, the glory of his achievement has vindicated the purity of his motives. He belongs to history. But there were others - obscure ad venturers who had not his advantages of birth, position and intelligence; who had only his sympathy with the people of forests and sea he understood and loved so well. They can not be said to be forgotten since they have not been known at all. They were lost in the common crowd of seamen-traders of the Archipelago, and if they emerged from their obscurity it was only to be condemned as law-breakers. Their lives were thrown away for a cause that had no right to exist in the face of an irresistible and orderly progress - their thought less lives guided by a simple feeling.
