Excerpt from Dick: A Story for Boys and GirlsThe champion steamer of the Sound was slowly sliding out from her New York moorings. The last cable had splashed down into the dingy water beside the freight-house on the pier, and had been hauled in and laid dripping in its coil, ready to be thrown off again when the landing was made at night. Then, with a quickening pulse of life from the engines, the steamer swung out into the current and turned eastward, under the vast arch of the Brooklyn bridge and up the broad channel, slowly and majestically holding her straight course among the clumsy ferry-boats and the more active small craft which hurried out of her way.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
