Euphemia Among The Pelicans is a novel written by Frank R. Stockton. The story revolves around a young girl named Euphemia who travels to a remote island off the coast of Florida to visit her uncle. The island is home to a colony of pelicans, which Euphemia becomes fascinated with. She spends her days observing the pelicans and learning about their habits and behaviors. As she spends more time on the island, Euphemia uncovers a plot by a group of men to steal the pelicans' eggs and sell them for profit. She teams up with her uncle and a local fisherman to stop the men and protect the pelicans. Along the way, Euphemia learns valuable lessons about conservation and the importance of protecting wildlife.The book is written in a light and humorous style, making it a great read for both children and adults. It is also filled with vivid descriptions of the island and its inhabitants, making the setting come alive for the reader. Overall, Euphemia Among The Pelicans is a charming and entertaining story with an important message about environmental conservation.Our second night on the river was tinged with incident. We had come to anchor near a small settlement, and our craft had been moored to a rude wharf. About the middle of the night a wind-storm arose, and Euphemia and I were awakened by the bumping of the boat against the wharf-posts. Through the open end of the cabin I could see that the night was very dark, and I began to consider the question whether or not it would be necessary for me to get up.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
