Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Men of the Merchant Service: Being the Polity of the Mercantile Marine for ´Longshore Readers It has been repeatedly represented to me by disinterested friends, that among the innumerable works of both fact and fiction dealing with the sea, there are none telling in a comprehensive way what are the conditions of life in the Merchant Service; in other words, that there is no work to which a parent yielding to his son´s importunity to be allowed to go to sea, and seeking to know something of the nature of things on board of a merchant ship in detail, can turn with the assurance that he may there find what he needs. Nor can the youth, anxious to go to sea in the Merchant Service, find any guidance, which will at once be comprehensive and reliable, compacted into one handy volume. And as these same friends have done me the honour to suggest that I have the qualifications necessary for producing such a work, I have not at all unwillingly, acceded to their suggestions and undertaken the task.
