Great Sea Stories #252805

The noble band of singers of the sea, from the days ofthe Elizabethans to the sublime Swinburne, belongs to another volume. It is the sincere hope of the compiler that the present collection offers undisputable evidence that the prose tradition has been fully, sustained and that the reader will find in these pages living testimony to the marvelous interest of the theme — its virility and its beauty.
