In Deer Isle, Maine: The 16th Maine Volunteer Regiment at war and at home.
By: Peter Scott
(12 Reviews)
Genre: Historical Fiction
FREE for a limited time
Inspired by the Ken Burns series “The Civil War,” In Deer Isle, Maine is a work of historical fiction that takes place at the homefront in downeast Maine (and the battlefield) during the Civil War. It is the story of the 16th Maine Volunteer Regiment at war; and it is the story of the wives, families and sweethearts of those soldiers who waited at home in Deer Isle. A murder during a foraging party in Virginia early in the novel sets in motion a mysterious chain of events that resonates at home even after the war is over. The men of the 16th Maine fought at Fredericksburg where they praised for their fighting spirit.
At Gettysburg on the first day of the battle, the 16th Maine was ordered to cover the Union retreat, a solitary regiment against an entire Confederate corps. The regiment, already decimated, held, but in so doing they were very nearly annihilated, with fewer than thirty surviving death, wounds or capture. When those who survived wounds or capture returned to their seafaring town, they found an inordinate number of their friends and families deep in mourning, but unbowed, facing the future with hope and promise. The mystery resulting from the early foraging raid is uncovered in the end, but the motive for murder is unknown.

Speak Swahili, Dammit!
By: James Penhaligon
(28 Reviews)
Genre: Biographies & Memoirs
FREE for a limited time
An inspiring biographical account of a young boy’s chaotic life in a remote, wild, corner of East Africa.
Born in Africa, James’s childhood is spent on an isolated gold-mine near Lake Victoria, Tanganyika, with just his sister and mother; his father tragically dying through injuries sustained from World War II. His upbringing is mainly left to a tribal ayah called Amina and an elderly Swahili man, and he learns to speak Swahili before English.
In this unusual setting he soon discovers some stark facts about life through tragedy and danger, but it is the local watu, imbued with kindness and irrepressible humour, that save him from despair, and with whom he learns to fish with home-made lines, eat insects and famously abuse the European hierarchy in real Swahili!
Known as ‘Jimu’ to his friends, he marks out his own country with a Sukuma boy named Lutoli, falls deeply in love with the beautiful, but older, German girl Gretchen and throws himself out of the back of a bus to avoid being sent away to school.
Once at school, in Arusha, James tends to mix with other non-conformers and presents a dilemma to teachers, he is a white boy with a ‘black spirit’. His gang gets up to nefarious enterprises, bringing them into a state of permanent conflict with the system.
James is fascinated with the history of Tanganyika back to the time when it was a German Colony until 1918. The unparalleled courage of the German leader Paul von Lettow Vorbeck against the British is a beacon to the young boy of what can be accomplished against adversity
Above all James discovers the world, and life, a little by education, a lot by accident, but overwhelmingly by fate and happenstance, in circumstances few people in the developed world have experienced.
