It is a collection of stories and sketches about the author’s experiences as a sailor on board windjammers and tramp steamers.

The stories are written in a vivid and engaging style, with a focus on the people and cultures that Runciman encountered during his travels. The book is a fascinating account of a bygone era of seafaring, and is sure to appeal to anyone interested in maritime history or adventure stories.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
