Summary "Thrilling Adventures by Land and Sea" by James O. Brayman is a collection of remarkable historical facts and thrilling narratives written during the late 19th century. The book aims to engage readers with extraordinary incidents that span various experiences and adventures, including war stories, encounters with wildlife, and maritime perils, all captured from authentic sources. At the start of the compilation, the preface emphasizes the need for stimulating yet morally uplifting reading material, introducing the reader to different thrilling accounts. The opening chapters include dramatic tales such as the Battle of Resaca de la Palma, where Sergeant Milton recounts his harrowing experience of being trapped beneath a fallen horse while under fire, and the selfless act of a surgeon in Marseilles who sacrifices his life to uncover the secrets of a plague. These gripping narratives set the tone for a diverse collection that promises to both inform and excite, highlighting the human spirit's resilience in the face of danger.
