Book excerpt: Excerpt from Eighteen Months on a Greenland Whaler I am well aware of the fact that the public has for a long time back been solicited in behalf of new publications in a well-nigh distracting degree. Modern facilities for book-making have ushered upon the world a new breed of the gems homo, known as the book-agent, making a fourth to be added to the list of Solomon's insatiables. And with an eye like the ancient mariner' s and a pow er like that of Scheherazade for spinning a yarn, this nondescript is as far-reaching as civilization, ubiquitous as advertisements of quack medicine and persistently penetrative as the North wind, and generally about as unwelcome.

There are words, too, used in the times dealt with, which do not find a place in the English dictionary of to-day, and it is hoped, therefore, that the information which is given in these pages, will be found full of interest, not only to the uninitiated, but to those who may remember their own experiences in whaling. Thankful for my own escapes in early life, I would beg to lay this narrative before the general public. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Old Jack: A Man-of-War's South-Sea Whaler There is a time of life when a person feels that he has left for ever his boyish days and stepped into manhood. I felt that I had passed that boundary when I found myself rated as an able seaman on board the Syren sloop of war. I was now under a far stricter system of discipline than I had been accustomed to. At first I felt it somewhat galling; but I soon saw that without the greatest regularity it would be impossible to keep order among the crew of a ship even of the size of the Syren. My early days I had spent on board a merchantman, and had met with many adventures somewhat strange and exciting. I did not expect to meet with fewer in my new career, though they would probably be of a different character. The result of my last, in which I had aided in rescuing two of my countrymen from captivity, had proved most satisfactory.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Peter Trawl: Or the Adventures of a Whaler Rother jack, a seaman's bag over his shoulders, B trudged sturdily ahead; father followed, carrying the oars, spars, sails, and other gear of the Wherry, While as I toddled alongside him I held on with one hand to the skirt of his pea-jacket, and griped the boat-hook which had been given to my charge with the other. From the front of the well-known inn, the Keppel's Head the portrait of the brave old admiral, which I always looked at with awe and admiration, thinking What a great man he must have been, gazed sternly down on us as we made our way along the Common Hard of Portsea towards the water's edge. Father and Jack hauled in the Wherry, and having deposited their burdens in her, set to work to mop her out and to put her to rights, while I stood, still grasping the boat-hook, which I held upright with the point in the ground, watching their proceedings, till father, lifting me Up in his arms, placed me in the sternsheets.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Gam: Being a Group of Whaling Stories I have for many years wondered that the romantic and exciting experiences of the whale fishery have not been preserved more often in records in our literature. Occa sionally we have had sketches of one or another detail in this marvellous adventure. But it would seem as if the brave men who engage in such adventure handle harpoons more willingly than they handle pens. And so you shall hear many a story of such adventure told by men who Speak of what they have seen, while you do not read one such story. I was very glad, therefore, to hear that Capt. Charles H. Robbins had put to paper some accounts of his own earlier experiences, and that he has been persuaded to publish them; and to say to any friend of mine' that he may place confident reliance on the narrative of Capt. Robbins, as being that of one who tells of what he saw, of which indeed he was much himself. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

I have endeavored to give a strictly faithful account of the various phases of a sailor's existence. I have borne in mind the usual objec tion to books of this class; that they, are likely to inspire youth with an uneasy longing for a wandering, worthless mode of life. And as my little books were likely to interest young men and boys, my aim has been to give a plain com mon sense picture of that about which a false romance throws many charms. If anything I have written on this subject shall induce a young man, launching into life, to make a sensible choice of evils, by looking elsewhere than to the Sea for the adventurous existence which his Spirit requires, I Shall be rewarded.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from On Board a Whaler: An Adventurous Cruise Through Southern Seas N the spring of 1868, while yet a boy in my eighteenth year, I was living at Mattapoisett, on the shores of Buzzard's Bay. My ancestors were among the founders of the Plymouth colony, and many of them had at some previous time been engaged in the whale fishery. A considerable ﬂeet of Whalers had once sailed from our little port; but during the Civil War the rebel Alabama captured and burned most of it, and the industry was fast becoming a tradition among us. There were, how ever, still many retired seamen living in the town who were fond of relating their experiences, and my first and most pleasing recollections are of tales told by them.
