Synopsis
Excerpt from Notes and Queries, Vol. 9: A Medium of Intercommunication for Literary Men, General Readers, Etc.; January-June, 1884
Sandy Isle, is uniformly so. It consists of a nucleus of sand banks, surrounded by narrow outlying ridges, and looks like a large octopus floating on the surface of the water, with its arms distended, waiting for its prey. When the north wind howls around the storm-swept islands, the prey, unfortunately, does not fail to arrive. Once caught between these low spurs of land, that remain unperceived until too near to be avoided, a ship seldom escapes. These are nature's sterner aspects, as seen during the winter months. During the months of June, July, and August the scene is different. The long northern twilight prevails from the end of May till the beginning of August. The sun then just dips below the horizon, as if his setting was a mere form; the daylight remains uninterrupted. This is the proper season to visit the islands. The charm of these long evenings must be seen and felt to be appreciated.

Notes and Queries, Vol. 9 (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book analyzes the emergence of a secret society from its earliest beginnings through to the twentieth century, using letters, diaries, newspaper accounts, and other documentation. The book argues that this secret society has played a crucial role in global affairs over the last four centuries, going back to the Templars in the Middle Ages, and has directed significant people within the society to take actions to enact their plans. The author posits that the society persisted in secrecy due to its desire for global control and the orchestration of events that would assure that outcome, while at the same time concealing its machinations from the public. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781334086809_0
