DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from From the Forecastle to the Cabin I have endeavored to give in these pages a terse and exact account of my personal experience, under and not over drawn, omitting details which would make the book too voluminous, and pointing out the more dan gerous temptations which beset a boy who has entered upon a seafaring life. I have avoided as much as pos sible the use of sea terms, that I might not befog the landsman. Sailors will not object to the omission, as they hear enough of sea talk in the way of business. Parents will find nothing herein to induce their boys to desert their firesides, but much, I trust, that will prove the truth of the saying, that Truth is stranger than fiction. 8. S.
