The Floating Island by Richard Head is a novel set in the 17th century that follows the adventures of two young boys, William and Jacob, who find themselves stranded on a mysterious island in the middle of the ocean. The island is unique in that it is not fixed to the ocean floor, but rather floats on the surface of the water. As they explore the island, the boys encounter a variety of strange creatures and meet a group of people who have been living on the island for years. Among them is a beautiful young woman named Isabella, who captures William's heart. The island is ruled by a tyrannical king who has enslaved the people and is determined to keep them trapped on the island forever. William and Jacob, along with Isabella and a group of rebels, set out to overthrow the king and escape the island. Along the way, they face numerous challenges and obstacles, including treacherous waters, dangerous creatures, and the king's army. The Floating Island is a thrilling adventure story that combines elements of fantasy, romance, and action. It is a tale of courage, friendship, and the power of the human spirit to overcome adversity. With vivid descriptions and engaging characters, Richard Head transports readers to a world of wonder and excitement that will keep them on the edge of their seats until the very end.He that can so insinuate or wriggle himself into the affection of some wealthy Maid, Wife, or Widdow, as to have his necessities supplyed from time to time by a liberal and generous contribution, is a perfect Logician, having gotten Piscator in Romum by heart.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
