SEA FEVER

A deeply felt telling of life as a sailor during the closing years of the great era of sailing ships. Shipping out as a consumptive lad of fourteen, the author toughened into manhood and sailorhood in the face of experience with wastrel sailors, a would be murderer, and hazardous Baltic trips. Mutual feeling of ship and sailor will appeal to those who like adventure real and tough, yet with beauty.
