Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Doris and Theodora Among the notes furnished for this story by a long-ago resident of Santa Cruz, were some which drew so graphic a picture of life upon the Island in its halcyon days, that the temptation to give them to the possible readers of the story is almost irresistible, especially as they tell of a phase of life which has vanished, never to return either there or elsewhere. "Your map will show you a number of islands in the Atlantic Ocean, between North and South America - and as these islands lie in the Torrid Zone, of course the climate is very hot, but the delightful breezes, sometimes from the sea, sometimes over the land, make the temperature very endurable - indeed healthful. There is never any frost or snow - most of the houses are finished without glass sashes, the windows are shaded by wide Venetian blinds, and secured by heavy, strong outside wooden shutters, which are closed and barred when the fierce winds of the hurricane-season are threatening. This season is from July 25th to October 25th. These days are marked in the churches, the one as a day of intercession, the other for thanksgiving.
