Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Sagas of the Seas: By American Writers
Mr. French pays no attention to those who hold that this or that man must necessarily write well of the sea because he has made his living off it. Doubtless he learned early what many others have learned; which is, that a sailorman is as likely to write dull stories of the sea as a ribbon sales man is to write dull stories of department store life; and so, he takes what he wants where he finds it.
