Excerpt from Summer in Bermuda and Excerpts From Tom Moore's Bermudian Letters to His MotherDoes it not savor of Fairyland to speak of coral houses built upon coral islands? Well, such is the case down in Old Bermuda. The Islands are of coral formation and each little bungalow is built from blocks of coral sawed out of the ledges with the common saw, and are left exposed to the air to harden. After building, they are given a coat of whitewash to protect the coral from the weather. These little white houses shimmer in the sunlight in a setting of green and tropical bloom, contrasting with the gray of the ledges and rich coloring of their environment.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
