Book Description
Excerpt from Yankee Swanson: Chapters From a Life at Sea In the following pages I have endeavored to give the reader a correct idea of sea life such as I myself experienced thirty-five years ago. The sort of life which I have tried to portray will in a few years be a thing of the past; in fact, even now sailing vessels are scarce, and with the completion of the Panama Canal it is generally conceded that they will be doomed to the scrap-heap, and that with them will also disappear such conditions as I have tried to describe. Sea stories as a rule are interesting, especially to landlubbers, and the libraries are full of such works; but as the majority of them are written by people who know very little about the real sea life and never had any actual experience of it, it follows that, no matter how able the writer, the story in itself is devoid of or lacking in what I might call salt sea air. For many years, commencing with my boyhood days, I have been in the habit of keeping a diary wherein I made notes of things that happened on shipboard, this with the object in view of writing a book at some future time. My grandfather, ninety years old when I left home, was in a way instrumental in starting me to keep a diary, he having kept one during ten years of campaigning with Napoleon, and he very often expressed a wish to be able to make use of his notes to write a book. Hence my idea of writing. Some time ago, when I decided to make use of my diary for writing, I intended to cram my whole thirty-six years' experience into one story.

Book Description
Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.
