Dealer: AbebooksUK, The Print Room
Description: ISBN10: 1861761619, ISBN13: 9781861761613, [publisher: Chatham Publishing / Gerald Duckworth & Co Ltd, London] Hardcover First Edition First edition, first impression. Some very slight edge wear to top and bottom of jacket and spine, top corners very slightly bruised, not price clipped (£19.95), no inscriptions, internally clean tight and square, overall a vg++ copy. 376pp, illustrated. 'Nasty, brutish and short'. Hobbes might well have been describing the existence of the professional seaman for most of history. The earliest recorded sailor's yarn, dating from about 2000 BC, is a story of shipwreck, and seamen were always nearer to oblivion than most. At times landsmen have been tempted to sentimentalise the way of the sea, Dibden the eighteenth century ballad monger wrote: 'There is a sweet cherub that sits up aloft, to keep watch for the life of poor Jack' but seamen knew the cherub was never over diligent. Whether described as shipman, mariner, sailor, seaman, poor Jack or jolly Jack (jolly whenever opportunity offered, poor on all but paydays), the merchant seaman was substantially the same for most of the 2000 years of the Christian era and indeed for the 2000 years before that. Cut off from land and normal society, the seaman's world was distinct and the seaman himself distinctive. In the western world the deep sea sailor has now all but disappeared, so it is possible to look dispassionately at what the seafaring life meant for those who went down to the sea in ships. Drawing on a mass of contemporary material spanning four millennia, this book follows the merchant seaman ashore and afloat through the typical vicissitudes of his exotic but uncertain life. Although it is an unsentimental 'warts and all' portrayal, it is nevertheless an affectionate valedictory tribute to a lifestyle that has almost vanished.
