Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Adventures of Jones
When the wind subsided, towards night, and objects began to come down - a hay stack here, a man there, a wagon somewhere else - I set myself at work on a plan to pre vent-any such awkward occurrence in the future. Applying the principle Of non-resist ance, I constructed a spherical house about twelve feet in diameter. It was an exact ball, covered With light boiler-plates, and With iron shutters for the doors and Win dows. It was not the most convenient house inside, but by fitting it up like a Ship - that is, utilizing every inch Of space, no matter Where it was, for some purpose - it did very well. I had a bunk on one side for sleeping purposes, With straps to hold myself in.
