Among The Breakers is a dramatic play written by George Melville Baker and originally published in 1872. The play is set on the rugged coast of Maine and follows the story of a group of shipwreck survivors who are struggling to survive amidst the harsh conditions. The play is divided into two acts, and each act is further divided into several scenes. The first act introduces the characters and sets the scene for the drama that is to follow. The second act intensifies the action and leads to a dramatic climax. The play explores themes of survival, love, and betrayal, and is known for its vivid descriptions of the natural environment and the dangers that lurk within it. The characters are well-drawn and complex, and the dialogue is both realistic and poetic. Overall, Among The Breakers is a powerful and engaging drama that has stood the test of time and continues to be performed and studied by theatre enthusiasts and scholars alike.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
