Minstrelsy and Murder
In Minstrelsy and Murder, Andrew Silver locates the foundation of the South’s dark humor in the great and violent cultural upheavals of the nineteenth century. Examining the connection between comic victimization and real acts of aggression, Silver shows southern humor to be a product not of America’s wholeness and national unity but of its internal fears, divisiveness, and perpetual civil strife. He focuses on the work of southern writers Augustus B. Longstreet, George Washington Harris, Charles Chesnutt, and Mark Twain, exploring a strain of regional humor that runs counter to the more familiar American comic tradition. A profound distress about class emerges clearly in Silver’s read...

Silver
‘I always liked your father – he was a lad of spirit. He was clever enough to know the value of an adventure, at any rate, and brave enough to carry it out!’ ‘What adventure?’ I asked, although I already knew the answer. ‘Why the map of course, boy!’ Long John Silver’s voice rose into something of a scream. ‘The map and then the treasure across the sea!

Silver
A swashbuckling tale of adventure, by a literary legend, that revisits the beloved characters of Treasure Island. It's almost twenty years after the events of Robert Louis Stevenson's literary classic: Jim Hawkins now runs an inn called the Hispaniola with his son, Jim, on the English coast, and Long John Silver has returned to England to live in obscurity with his daughter, Natty. Their lives are separate, quiet, and unremarkable; their adventures have seemingly ended. But for Jim and Natty, the adventure is just beginning. One night, Natty approaches young Jim with a proposition: return to Treasure Island and find the rest of the treasure that their fathers left behind so many years before. Taking his father's map, long tucked away in the Hispaniola, Jim joins her aboard a ship--the Nightingale--and the new friends set out to sail in their fathers' footsteps. Along the way, they meet respectable seamen to whom adventure is an everyday thing and murderous pirates seeking to settle old grudges. And when they arrive on Treasure Island, they find that their treasure is so heavily guarded, they'll have to summon all their courage and wits to pry it from greedy hands.
