Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Captain Harry Foster Dean’s 1929 memoir The Pedro Gorino is the extraordinary story of his time in southern Africa around the turn of the twentieth century. Dean’s narrative describes his thrilling maritime adventures and his encounters with important figures in history, but he never loses sight of his main purpose: establishing a colony where diasporic Africans could settle alongside native-born Africans and together build a racial empire. His beloved ship, the Pedro Gorino, was at the center of his plans. A race leader manqué, Dean attempted throughout his life to convince Black people everywhere of the importance of the sea for the success of the race. A rich selection of contextual documents supplements the annotated memoir, providing materials on Dean’s life and work, imperialism and environmental exploitation in South Africa, Black seafaring, and the Pan-African missionary movement.

Penobscot Bay

People, Ports & Pastimes

By: Harry Gratwick

Penobscot Bay is the jewel of mid-coast Maine, a landscape of close-knit communities and picturesque ports whose scenery is matched only by its rich history. Granite from the quarries on Vinalhaven has built bridges, banks and monuments in twenty-three states. Ships launched in Searsport and Belfast have traveled the world. Harry Gratwick explores these and other episodes in Penobscot Bay's past, from the first recorded solar eclipse in Islesboro in 1780 to a covert meeting between Franklin Roosevelt and Winston Churchill in 1941. He also recalls some of the region's most indelible characters and traditions, including South Orrington's Earl 'on the River' Morrill and the Vinalhaven North Haven basketball rivalry. Describing war, sport, industry and tragedy, he captures the essence of Penobscot Bay.
