Download or read book A Ship's Tale written by N. Jay Young and published by Bitingduck Press LLC. This book was released on 2014-03-21 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Set in post-war England, this is the story of the square-rigger Bonnie Clyde. Before this great lady meets her fate, a group of rogue sailors, unable to persuade the Admiralty to help save the vessel, pirates the ship away while she's under tow to be scuttled. Through their creative use of materials and methods, they sail her through the English Channel and the Irish Sea, hoping to deliver the ship to where she was built in Dumbarton, Scotland on the river Clyde. A former Royal Navy officer Lt. Flynn tells the story. He is lured into conspiring with a Scottish sea captain (Bowman), his British first mate (Harris) who is the inside connection to parts from the scrap yards, an Irish navigator (Edward), and a Russian master rigger (Boris). Together, the crew outsmarts the British Admiralty and Scotland Yard in their attempts to stop the ship. During their journey, the crew fights the weather and avoids modern day detection. A sympathetic public opinion, aided by an AP reporter and a host of unlikely co-conspirators become their allies. Praise from reviewers: Walter Cronkite — A Ship's Tale by N. Jay Young is “an extraordinary tale from World War II of an extraordinary sailing vessel written by a courageous and extraordinary author.” James P. Delgado, Host of National Geographic Television’s The Sea Hunters and Executive Director, Vancouver Maritime Museum — “A Ship’s Tale by N. Jay Young is compelling, true to life, and hitting straight in the heart. I can empathize with those men who love that ship—for I too have loved and lost a ship. I encourage anyone with a love of the sea as well as those in a relationship with one of us ‘ship loving’ types to read this book.” Clive Cussler — “This is a good book and would make a good film.”

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 7 Footer Crays n' Crazy Tales is the life story of my father, John McMahon a.k.a Caca Jack. West Australian born but of Irish decent he carried with him the resilience and determination inherit in his family to survive and prosper at all costs. His story takes the reader from his moments as a young boy with all the experiences of being in the Australian hood' during the 1940's and 50's to the moment of his passing in September 2011. A large part of his life was anchored in Cervantes, a small coastal crayfishing town close to the famous Pinnacle Desert in Western Australia. He was many things but especially he was an untameable man of the sea with no greater passion than to go fishing. His obsession almost cost him his life on many occasions yet it fed his determination to try and outsmart the unpredictability of the Indian Ocean. Between many encounters with the law, narrow life escapes, unexpected emotional challenges and living life hard there was little time to relax. This would lead him through to an end reflective of such a life.
