Each clue leads to another level. Each level gets more dangerous. And someone is watching every move they make.With scooters, gaming skills, quick thinking, and a lot of panic, Brody, Ava, Jayden, and Liam have to figure out who is behind the game before their story gets uploaded for the whole world to see.The Glitch Crew: Level 1 is a fast-paced middle-grade adventure for kids who love scooters, video games, YouTube, mystery, and a little danger without things getting too scary.Perfect for fans of action-packed chapter books, online mysteries, gaming adventures, and stories about kids who have to solve the problem themselves.Both authors have dyslexia themselves, making this edition especially meaningful to them. It reflects their commitment to helping young readers experience a complete adventure in a clearer and more approachable format. Individual reading preferences may vary.…

Condition: Binding seriously rubbed, bumped, (damp) stained and faded (see images). Front joint open at the top of spine. Front free end paper and large part of half title page missing. Large part (c. 80%) of leaf D8 (pages 47 & 48) missing (a facsimile page printed on archival photo paper is losely inserted). Top section of the book damp stained. Edges dust dulled. Some minor nicks, tears & creases). Name of previous owner in colour pencil on 'Advertisement' page. Otherwise internally clean. The book would benefit greatly from rebinding. Despite its faults it remains a fascinating copy and a terrific read. Captain Bligh's initial account on the most famous mutiny in maritime history, written shortly after returning to England in March 1790. From the book's 'Advertisement' page: "This part of the voyage is not first in the order of time, yet the circumstances are so distinct from that by which it was preceded, that it appears unnecessary to delay giving as much early information as possible concerning so extraordinary an event. The rest will be laid before the Public as soon as it can be got ready; and it is intented to publish it in such a manner, as, with the present Narrative, will make the account of the voyage complete." William Bligh's Narrative covers the period from April 4, 1789, to March 14, 1790; that is from the departure of the Bounty from Otaheite (Tahiti) to his own arrival back in Britain. The Mutiny on the Bounty took place April 28, three weeks after departure. Bligh published his narrativel several months after his return to London. Titled 'Narrative of the Mutiny on the Bounty', it was a bestseller for the publisher, George Nicol. Bligh published an expanded account, A Voyage to the South Sea, in 1792. Bligh's narrative called the voyage one of "uninterrupted prosperity," and made no mention of personal differences with the crew. Bligh's 1790 'Narrative' was consequently published (pirated) in Dublin, Philadelphia, Rotterdam, and Paris & Amsterdam the same year: Official First Edition: London (George Nicol). Pirated Editions (all 1790): Dublin (White, Byrne et al), Philadelphia (W. Spotswood), Paris & Amsterdam (Didot & Dufour), (French), Rotterdam (G.A. Arenberg): (Dutch). Note: Unlike the First (George Nicol, London) Edition; the Dublin Edition was published without charts & plans.…

In den WarenkorbHardcover. Zustand: Very Good. THE LAIRD U. PARK, JR. COPY. London: George Nicol, 1792. First edition. Folio (11 3/4"x 9 3/8", 298mm x 240mm). With 8 engraved plates: portrait of William Bligh to the frontispiece, and 7 engraved plates of plans and charts (5 folding). Bound in modern quarter black calf over marbled paper boards. On the spine, five raised bands. Title and author gilt to tan morocco in the second panel. All edges of the text block gilt. A little faint rubbing to the extremities. Off-setting around the engravings. Foxing to the frontispiece and title page. Large closed tear in the plate of Otaheite. Vice-Admiral William Bligh (1754-1817) was an officer of the Royal Navy and a colonial administrator. The mutiny on the HMS Bounty occured in 1789 under his command. The mutineers, led by Master's Mate Fletcher Christian, set him and 18 loyal men adrift in an open launch in uncharted waters. Astoundingly, they all managed to reach Timor alive, after a journey of 3,618 nautical miles. "One of the most remarkable incidents in the whole of maritime history." (Hill) This is Bligh's official account of the mutiny, based on his journals. His original mission had been to collect bread-fruit trees from Tahiti and take them to the West Indies. They were intended to feed a growing slave population. Born in Philadelphia, LAIRD U. PARK, JR. (1922-2001) graduated from Princeton with a degree in engineering in 1947, after serving in WWII. He began his career in pharmacology and went on to manufacture laboratory equipment with Troemer, Inc. Purchased from his sale (the "Americana Library of Laird U.

In den WarenkorbQuarto, with frontispiece portrait, an engraving of the breadfruit, and six plans and charts; handsome modern binding of polished calf, spine ornately gilt in compartments between raised bands, double labels. First edition of one of the most famous of all voyage books: the official narrative of Bligh's voyage in the Bounty and the mutiny. At the time of publication Bligh was on his second breadfruit voyage, and the work was edited by James Burney, with the assistance of Sir Joseph Banks, both of whom had, like Bligh himself, sailed with Cook. This is the full account of the voyage, and contains a slightly altered version of Bligh's account of the mutiny, which had been separately published two years earlier. The mutiny and its ramifications would haunt Bligh always, although his reputation was redeemed by the epic open-boat journey across 4000 miles of the Pacific, and later by the part he played in the battle of Copenhagen alongside Nelson. His inglorious career as governor of New South Wales would later ruin his reputation again. The Bounty voyage was commissioned by the Admiralty, on the instructions of George III, to collect breadfruit plants ("the Merchants and Planters interested in His Majesty's West India Possessions have represented that the Introduction of the Bread Fruit Trees into the Islands in those Seas to constitute an Article of Food would be a very essential Benefit to the Inhabitants ."). The mutiny of 28 April 1789 resulted in Bligh and 18 others being cast adrift in an open-boat - certainly the most infamous mutiny in maritime history. His achievement in charting large sections of the Australian coast under conditions of terrible hardship partly completed the work of Cook himself on the Australian east coast. Bligh was justifiably proud of his achievements in mapping and charting during his travails, and each of the printed charts features his name prominently: the sketch of Matavai Bay in Tahiti even features his signature in facsimile. . The frontispiece portrait slightly stained, and the oval detail offset onto the title-page as seems to be always the case; otherwise very good.…

The account was based upon Bligh's journal but was written, edited, and seen through the press by James Burney, under the supervision of Sir Joseph Banks, during Bligh's absence from London while on his second breadfruit voyage. One bit of irony is that Bligh returned to Tahiti again to get more breadfruit, and, after delivering them to the West Indies, it was discovered that the natives did not care for the taste, much preferring their own bananas" (Hill). "At the time I published the Narrative of the Mutiny on Board the Bounty, it was my intention that the preceding part of the Voyage should be contained in a separate account. This method I have since been induced to alter. The reason of the Narrative appearing first, was for the purpose of communicating early information concerning an event which had attracted the public notice: and being drawn up in a hasty manner, it required many corrections. Some circumstances likewise were omitted; and the notation of time used in the Narrative, being according to sea reckoning, in which the days begin and end at noon, must have produced a degree of obscurity and confusion to readers accustomed only to the civil mode. And this would have increased, as the remainder of the voyage, on account of the numerous shore occurrences at Otaheite and elsewhere, could not, with clearness and propriety, have been related in any other than the usual manner of reckoning. Besides remedying these inconveniencies, I have thought a fuller account of our passage from Timor to Europe, than that contained in the Narrative, would not be unacceptable. These reasons, with the manifest convenience of comprising the whole Voyage in one continued narrative, in preference to letting it appear in disjointed accounts, will, it is hoped, be allowed a sufficient excuse for having varied from the original intention. Nevertheless, for the accommodation of the purchasers of the Narrative already published, those who desire it, will be supplied with the other parts of the Voyage separate; i.e. the part previous to the Mutiny, and the additional account after leaving Timor."
