Description
The Cruise of the Alerte is a thrilling adventure novel written by E.F. Knight. The story follows the journey of a group of friends who set out on a sailing expedition aboard the Alerte, a small yacht. The group consists of the narrator, his friend Jack, and two other men named Tom and Harry. They embark on a journey that takes them from the coast of England to the Mediterranean Sea, where they encounter a series of exciting and dangerous situations.The novel is filled with vivid descriptions of the sea, the landscapes, and the people they encounter along the way. The group faces challenges such as storms, pirates, and even a shipwreck. They also experience the beauty of the Mediterranean, with its warm waters, sandy beaches, and picturesque villages.The Cruise of the Alerte is not just an adventure story, but also a tale of friendship and camaraderie. The four men rely on each other to survive the challenges they face, and their bond grows stronger as they overcome each obstacle.Overall, The Cruise of the Alerte is a thrilling and entertaining novel that will transport readers to a world of adventure on the high seas.Finding that there were no suitable stones near this beach, we got in the boat again and rowed to West Bay, to see if we should have better luck there. Three islets-- as indicated in the plan of Trinidad-- lie off the east side of the Ness. We found that the narrow deep-water channel between these and the cape could be taken with safety on a fine day like this. As a rule, this channel is impracticable, for the ocean swell penetrating it produces a great commotion, the sea being dashed with violence from the cliffs on one side to those on the other, so that the entire channel presents the appearance of a boiling cauldron; and, even on this quiet day, we had to keep the boat carefully in the middle, for the waves leapt high up the rocky walls with a loud noise, which was repeated in manifold echoes by the crags above. When we were in the passage between the third islet and the shore the scene before us was most impressive.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
