Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Sea Hawk Buoys were bobbing gently in the outrunning tide; the endless straggle of shoredrift was lazing down the creek; round, water-washed cocoa husks twinkled and darkled in the stream, like the heads of so many swimmers; here was a sea-worn piece of planking, there a splintered spar, and, floating amid it all, was a cedar canoe in which a bareheaded young man, with an easy, self-confident look in his frank, likeable face, steadily and neatly plied the paddle, his glinting blue-gray eyes glancing sharply from right to left to mark what heartless tug captain might be aiming to run him down. For at times there were many towing masters speeding their stout boats about in Oakland Creek and the blue San Francisco bay beyond, and from the viewpoint of a man in a fourteen-foot canoe they were all desperate murderers.
