Not illustrated. 1807 edition. Excerpt: ... of rain, and buried deep in the soil. They were not found together, but scattered at some distance from each other. The two tusks were twenty feet apart. I had often heard of the elephant's bones at Burton, but never saw them; and I have no books to refer to. I think I saw, in what is now called the National Museum at Paris, the very large bones of an elephant, which were found in North America: though it is certain that this enormous animal is never seen in its natural state, but in the countries under the torrid zone of the old world. I have, since making this note, been told that the bones of the rhinoceros and hippopotamus have been found in America. Page 28. Line 16. "--and in giants dwelling on the hills--" The peasants believe that the large bones sometimes found belonged to giants, who formerly lived on the hills. The devil also has a great deal to do with the remarkable forms of hill and vale: the Devil's Punch Bowl, the Devil's Leaps, and the Devil's Dyke, are names given to deep hollows, or high and abrupt ridges, in this and the neighbouring county.

"The savage native, who his acorn meal--" The Aborigines of this country lived in woods, unshiltered but by trees and caves; and were probably as truly savage as any of those who are now termed so.

Synopsis The Light Keeper by : Cole Morton
‘I loved this’ Matt Haig ‘Fabulous’ Jane Fallon ‘Mesmerizing’ Peter James ‘Wonderfully written’ Anthony Horowitz Sarah stands on the brink, arms open wide as if to let the wind carry her away. She’s come to the high cliffs to be alone, to face the truth about her life, to work out what to do. Her lover Jack is searching, desperate to find her before it is too late. But Sarah doesn’t want to be found. Not yet. Not by him. And someone else is seeking answers up here where the seabirds soar – a man known only as the Keeper, living in an old lighthouse right on the cusp of a four-hundred-foot drop. He is all too aware that sometimes love takes you to the edge . . . ‘Cole writes with human warmth and bittersweet emotion. I loved this.’ Matt Haig ‘Wonderfully written. This is a book that will stay with you.’ Anthony Horowitz ‘An absolute thing of beauty. Not like anything else I’ve read. Fabulous.’ Jane Fallon ‘Mesmerizing and lyrical, Cole creates atmosphere you can breathe and emotion that can shred your heart.’ Peter James ‘Evocative, spiritual and deeply immersive.’ Rev Kate Bottley ‘Tremendous speed and pace. The ending took me completely by surprise.’ Jeffrey Archer ‘Compelling, ambitious and deeply moving.’ Peter Stanford ‘Beautifully tense and atmospheric.’ Marianne Power
