Aggiungi al carrelloCondizione: VERY GOOD. Later printing. The third book in the Woodville series. The young fugitives of the title are three young slaves who have fled a plantation in Louisiana. In his preface, the author states that this was not written in the anti-slavery cause, but he would be thankful if it kindled "any new emotions of sympath…y for the oppressed and enslaved." When Dan, the body-servant to the son of the master, is whipped unjustly, he determines that he will no longer live under slavery -and his motto becomes "watch and wait" for a chance to flee - along with his two closest friends. Illustrated with a frontispiece and two glossy internal plates. 276 pp plus 10 pp publisher's ads. Very good in illustrated green boards (previous owner's name dated 1906).

Excerpt from the Preface: "'Sea and Shore' is the sixth and last of the Onward and Upward Series, in which Phil Farringford, in company with his friend Larry Grimsby, has some experience as a traveller. The story includes the cruise of the Blanche, a first-class yacht, which goes to the Bermuda Islands, across the Atlantic, up the Baltic, and along the shores of the Mediterranean. The various 'tramps' of these young gentlemen are in the Bermudas, in Norway, Sweden, on the Rhine, and in other parts of Europe, though the volume is in no sense a book of travel." William Taylor Adams (1822-1897) was an American author and scholar who served on the Massachusetts House of Representatives. He often used the pen name, Oliver Optic, for his published works and wrote many books, mostly target toward young boys.
