In World War I she served with the Royal Navy and was sunk by a U-boat in 1917. SS Ortona was the last ship that Pacific Steam built for the London-to-Australia route. Launched on 10 July 1899 and registered in Liverpool on 26 October she left London on her maiden voyage was on 24 November in a joint service with the Orient Steam Navigation Company. She carried 140 first-class 180 second-class and 300 third-class passengers a total of 620. In December 1902 Ortona was used to return troops to the UK after the end of the Second Boer War. On 8 May 1906 Ortona was sold to the Royal Mail Steam Packet Company who used her in a joint operation with the Orient line to Australia. The "All Golds" professional New Zealand Rugby League team travelled on Ortona from Australia to France via Ceylon in August/September 1907. In April 1909 she was transferred to the Royal Mail West Indies service. In 1910 she was sent to the Harland & Wolff shipyard in Belfast for conversion into a 320-capacity cruise ship with a new gross tonnage of 8939. She was renamed RMS Arcadian on 21 September 1910 as the RMSP's liners had names beginning with the letter "A" and was registered at Belfast in September of the following year. She started her first world cruise in January 1912 the largest dedicated cruise ship in the world at that time. She was on the first leg of this voyage that Olave St Claire Soames met Lieutenant General Sir Robert Baden-Powell the founder of the Scout Movement leading to their marriage in October of that year. In February 1915 near the start of the First World War Arcadian was taken up by the Admiralty and converted to an armed merchant cruiser. On 7 April 1915 at Alexandria General Sir Ian Hamilton came aboard and used Arcadian together with the battleship Queen Elizabeth as his headquarters ship during the opening phase of the Gallipoli Campaign. Once Hamilton's staff had transferred to a shore base at Imbros Arcadian was employed as a troop ship in the Mediterranean. On 15 April 1917 Arcadian was en route from Thessaloniki Salonika to Alexandria with a company of 1335 troops and crew and escorted by a Japanese Navy destroyer. Shortly after completing a boat drill while 26 miles north east of the Greek island of Milos Arcadian was hit by a single torpedo from the German submarine SM UC-74 and sank within six minutes with the loss of 279 lives. A contemporary newspaper article described how four of Arcadian's overcrowded lifeboats were successfully lowered before she sank. Some of the dead were cooks and stokers who were working below decks. The escorting destroyer had two torpedoes launched at her while she was attempting to rescue men from the water; survivors reported that she had lowered three of her own boats while going "at full speed". More survivors who had been clinging to a raft were rescued at midnight by the Q-ship HMS Redbreast. Among the dead was the eminent bacteriologist Sir Marc Armand Ruffer who was returning to Alexandria after advising on the control of an epidemic among troops based at Thessaloniki.

Ecocriticism is the study of literature and the environment from an interdisciplinary point of view where literature scholars analyze texts that illustrate environmental concerns and examine the various ways literature treats the subject of nature. Some ecocritics brainstorm possible solutions for the correction of the contemporary environmental situation though not all ecocritics agree on the purpose methodology or scope of ecocriticism. In the United States ecocriticism is often associated with the Association for the Study of Literature and Environment ASLE1 which hosts biennial meetings for scholars who deal with environmental matters in literature. ASLE publishes a journalInterdisciplinary Studies in Literature and Environment ISLEin which current international scholarship can be found. Ecocriticism is an intentionally broad approach that is known by a number of other designations including "green cultural studies" "ecopoetics" and "environmental literary criticism" and is often informed by other fields such as ecology sustainable design biopolitics environmental history environmentalism and social ecology among others.

Schama, Simon
Rough Crossings - Britain The Slaves and the American Revolution.
2005. London BBC Books 2005. 16 cm x 24 cm. 448 pages with illustrations. Original hardcover with dustjacket in protective mylar. Excellent condition with only very minor signs of external wear. Clean inside with solid binding. "Rough Crossings" is the astonishing story of the struggle to freedom by thousands of African-American slaves who fled the plantations to fight behind British lines in the American War of Independence. With gripping powerfully vivid story-telling Simon Schama follows the escaped blacks into the fires of the war and into freezing inhospitable Nova Scotia where many who had served the Crown were betrayed in their promises to receive land at the war's end. Their fate became entwined with British abolitionists: inspirational figures such as Granville Sharp the flute-playing father-figure of slave freedom and John Clarkson the 'Moses' of this great exodus who accompanied the blacks on their final rough crossing to Africa wher they hoped that freedom would finally greet them. 'This brilliant book by the leading historian of our times about a subject of great significance will delight professional historians and entrance the reading public. "Rough Crossings" succeeds in all respects. It is a 'tour de force' and a landmark in historical scholarship.' - Trevor Burnard "Times Higher Education Supplement". '.Schama's gift for plunging us into the very centre of the action whether in Charleston London or on the African coast makes reading an exhilarating experience. ' - Ellen Gibson Wilson "Daily Telegraph". hardcover
