Book Description
In 1757, a sailing ship owned by an affluent Connecticut merchant sailed from New London to the tiny island of Bence in Sierra Leone, West Africa, to take on fresh water and slaves. On board was the owner’s son, on a training voyage to learn the trade. The Logbooks explores that voyage, and two others documented by that young man, to unearth new realities of Connecticut’s slave trade and question how we could have forgotten this part of our past so completely. When writer Anne Farrow discovered the significance of the logbooks for the Africa and two other ships in 2004, her mother had been recently diagnosed with dementia. As Farrow bore witness to the impact of memory loss on her mother’s sense of self, she also began a journey into the world of the logbooks and the Atlantic slave trade, eventually retracing part of the Africa’s long-ago voyage to Sierra Leone. As the narrative unfolds in The Logbooks, Farrow explores the idea that if our history is incomplete, then collectively we have forgotten who we are—a loss that is in some ways similar to what her mother experienced. Her meditations are well rounded with references to the work of writers, historians, and psychologists. Forthright, well researched, and warmly recounted, Farrow’s writing is that of a novelist’s, with an eye for detail. Using a wealth of primary sources, she paints a vivid picture of the eighteenth-century Connecticut slavers. The multiple narratives combine in surprising and effective ways to make this an intimate confrontation with the past, and a powerful meditation on how slavery still affects us.

Book Description
This 25-session log book is for astrophotographers who want to record as much data for each session as they want. It's for beginners to help establish good imaging session habits early on; for the advanced astrophotographer who wants and needs a consistent place to record and find the data they worked hard to collect, and for the astrophotographer who likes to look back on old records and reminisce about those special sessions. If you are an astrophotographer, whether using a simple setup of a DSLR, lens, and tripod, or a more complex arrangement of telescope, mount, filters, and dedicated astrophotography camera, I hope you will find this log book to be very convenient and useful. Four pages are dedicated to each session, which includes the target, date, and location of the session, equipment used, exposure plan details, environmental information, and two pages for observation and processing notes. The Appendix contains a general checklist for astrophotography sessions, session planning considerations, Bortle scale, seeing scale, transparency scale, a section on ethical astrophotography, commonly-used formulas and unit conversions, and a handy equipment data sheet for specifications often used in common calculations. The framework provides a comprehensive list of data you may want to record, and also serves as a reminder or checklist to use for your imaging session planning and set up. The book format is 6x9, bound with twin loop wire which allows the book to lay flat and for the front cover to be brought all the way around to reduce the size of the footprint of the book next to your laptop on your imaging table. Each book is hand made by the author, so there will be variations in the appearance, end papers, and other aspects of the book. The front cover is 2mm thick book board and the back cover is 2mm thick book board for strength, durability during storage and travel, and provides a solid writing surface. The pages are strong 24lb, 90gsm paper, also for durability and long life as a record of your achievements.

Book Description
Anyone could swear like a sailor! Within the larger culture, sailors had pride of place in swearing. But how they swore and the reasons for their bad language were not strictly wedded to maritime things. Instead, sailor swearing, indeed all swearing in this period, was connected to larger developments. This book traces the interaction between the maritime and mainstream world in the United States while examining cursing, language, logbooks, storytelling, sailor songs, reading, images, and material goods. To Swear Like a Sailor offers insight into the character of Jack Tar - the common seaman - and into the early republic. It illuminates the cultural connections between Great Britain and the United States and the appearance of a distinct American national identity. The book explores the emergence of sentimental notions about the common man - through the guise of the sailor - appearing on stage, in song, in literature, and in images.
