Faery Lands of the South Seas, by James Hall and Charles Nordhoff, Part 5

Let's continue our sail to sleep through a month of travel readings with more from this wonderful wander through the South Seas.

Pictures from Italy, by Charles Dickens, Part 4

Let's continue our sojourn to sleep through a month of travel readings with more from Charles Dickens and his tour through Italy. This time, we conclude our visit to Genoa, have a strange experience with puppets, an even stranger visit to Marseilles, and consider that things are often more beautiful seen from a distance.

Sailing Alone Around the World, by Captain Joshua Slocum, Part 4

Let's sail to sleep with the first read of our new theme month, Travels! This time, we return to an epic journey around the world in a handmade boat, and wrestle with Cape Horn, seasickness, and williwaws. Also, the benefits of carpet tacks and the kindness of strangers.

Ecclesiastical History of England, by the Venerable Bede, Part 3

Let's relax in the wayback machine with more from the religious history of England. This time, Saint Bede recalls Saxon double-dealings, divine healings, the Pelagian heresy, and the somewhat cowardly companions of Saint Augustine, who get politely yelled at by the pope. Miraculous!
