Excerpt from The Treasure of Cocos Island: A Story of the Indian Ocean Horsburgh the Borneo Coral Islands, a group in the Indian Ocean, about six hundred miles south of the coast of Sumatra, in 12° 5' S. Lat. And 90° 55' E. Long., well known as having furnished Mr. Darwin with the typical example of an atoll or lagoon island. There are altogether twenty-three small islands, nine and a half miles being the greatest width of the whole atoll. The lagoon is very shallow, and the passages between many of the islands of such trifling depth that it is possible to 'walk at low tide with some slight wading all the way from Direction Isl and to West Island.' An opening on the northern side of the reef permits the entrance of vessels into the northern part of the lagoon, which forms a good harbor known as Port Refuge, or Port Albion. The climate is temperate and extremely healthy. Terrific storms sometimes break over the islands, and it has been more than once visited by earth quakes.

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1902 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER IX. FREEDOM. As may be imagined, Winn was keenly on the alert for such conversation as might give him a clew to what had been done, and how the news of his escape was received. In the effort to ascertain this fact he was more successful than he had dared to hope, thanks to Joe, who intentionally made his report to the captain where the boy could readily overhear it. In fact, it seemed to Winn as if the old sailor was standing within a few inches of his place of concealment when he said: "I'm mighty sorry, Captain Robinson, to have to report that most likely the sharks have gobbled up Winn Burbridge." "Sharks?" Captain Jim repeated. "Ay, sir. When I carried the ungrateful little villain his breakfast, what does he do but make a rush out, upsetting me and getting on deck before I could so much as say 'Jack Robinson.' Then" "Didn't you have sense enough to think he might try some such game as that?" Winn heard Bart Gerry interrupt angrily. "I didn't allow he'd be so crazy as to go over the rail where the sharks are as thick as blackberries in 'Squire Kelly's pasture. Even if you'd warned me to look out for any sich trick, I'd 'a' said to myself he couldn't done more'n give me a chase 'round the decks for a spell. But it must have been in his head to kill hisself rather than go back to Fairhaven an' be tried for stealin', 'cause he took to the water as if he'd made up his mind for it beforehand." "Are you certain he didn't swim ashore?" Captain Jim asked anxiously, and Gerry said with a laugh, as if the news of the boy's probable death pleased him: "How far do you reckon he or anybody else could swim where the water is fairly alive with sharks?" "Of course it stands to reason he didn't live many minutes after goin' over the rail. How...

Much of human history has played itself out along the rim of the Indian Ocean. In a first-of-its-kind attempt, bestselling author Sanjeev Sanyal tells the history of this significant region, which stretches across East Africa, the Middle East and the Indian subcontinent to South East Asia and Australia. He narrates a fascinating tale about the earliest human migrations out of Africa and the great cities of Angkor and Vijayanagar; medieval Arab empires and Chinese ‘treasure fleets’; the rivalries of European colonial powers and a new dawn. Sanjeev explores remote archaeological sites, ancient inscriptions, maritime trading networks and half-forgotten oral histories, to make exciting revelations. In his inimitable style, he draws upon existing and new evidence to challenge well-established claims about famous historical characters and the flow of history. Adventurers, merchants, explorers, monks, swashbuckling pirates, revolutionaries and warrior princesses populate this colourful and multifaceted narrative. The Ocean of Churn takes the reader on an amazing journey through medieval geopolitics and eyewitness accounts of long-lost cities to the latest genetic discoveries about human origins, bringing alive a region that has defined civilization from the very beginning.
