Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Heroes of Exile: Being Certain Rescued Fragments of Submerged Romance "Of old, unhappy, far-off things, And battles long ago." The legal and technical language of salvage recognises three categories into which may be divided all classes of objects that are cast away or rescued from the sea - jetsam, flotsam, and ligan; and for the historian (who, after all, is only the salvor of a few of the more precious things which the seas of time threaten to engulf), the fragments of human story fall quite naturally into one or another of these divisions. The vast majority of the men and women who have made this world their dwelling-place, and of the events which have moulded for them their lives into the likeness of comedy or tragedy, are plain jetsam. They are strewn upon the waters, rise or fall and jostle one another upon their surface for a little while, sink and are no more seen.
