Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from Gold Out of Celebes Perhaps it was Jack Barry´s own fault that he had spent three weeks loafing about Batavia without a job. Fat jobs were to be had, if a fellow persevered and could grin at rebuffs; but when he discovered that shore jobs for sailors were usually secured through the Consulate, and that his own country´s Consulate Service was limited, as service, to cocktails and financial reports to Washington, he decided to avoid that combination and stick to his own profession. He had been mate of the Gregg, when that ancient ark foundered off Kebatu, and also held a clean master´s ticket; but somehow he found that masters and mates were a drug on the Batavian market just then; hence his three barren weeks of idleness. "An American has no business with the sea these days," he reflected moodily. "Confound this stodgy port and its stodgy Dutchmen!" Legs wide apart, hands thrust deep into his pockets, he puffed fiercely at his pipe and surveyed the scene before him.
