Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from The Cabin Boy´s Locker: Compiled Chiefly From the Volumes of the Sailor´s Magazine Mr. Editor: From the moment I saw your representation of a book-case, in the Sailor´s Magazine, I have wished to congratulate the cabin-boy on the change in his employment. Formerly, the locker must be filled with wines, and porter, and ale, in addition to a plentiful store of stronger liquors; and the cry from different parts of the ship was almost incessant, "Ben, give me another bottle, or another glass, or at least a small portion, for sea-sickness;" insomuch, best the observing lad was likely to receive the Impression that the principal charm of life must consist in the use of stimulating drinks. And with his opportunities, what could be expected, out that he should seek for happiness in the same course in which he saw those of higher rank than himself so eagerly pursuing? But let the custom be changed. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
