Book excerpt: Excerpt from Songs of Sea Labour: Chanties Dear Bullen, You have done real good national work in helping to preserve these fine old Chanties. Like yourself I have heard them many a time when I have been bending to the rhythm as we hauled up the heavy whaling boats to their davits. It is wonderful how their musical rise and fall, with the pull coming on the main note, lightened the labour. I fear in these days of steam winches that the old stamp-and-go of ten men on a rope is gone for ever. And yet your book will help to preserve it, and to those who know and can feel, there is a smack of salt spray in every line of these rude virile verses. To them once again will come back the creak of the blocks as the falls whine through them, and the dead heavy lurch as the boat jerks upwards. As I glance through your pages and see "On the plains of Mexico," "Blow the man down," or "Rio Grande," I can hardly think of any words or tunes that appeal more intimately to all the spirit of adventure that life has left in me. I only wish you were here to sing them yourself in your inimitable way. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Secret of the Sea &C Time was when the r.m.s. Patagonia' was the greyhound of the Atlantic but that time was long past. Newer and larger boats, burning less coal and making more knots, had been built nearly every year Since the Patagonia' had beaten the record by crossing the ocean in less than eight days from Browhead Castle to Fire Island Light. Now not only were there other deer-hounds of the deep two days faster than the Patagonia had ever been, but the Patagonia herself, like the man who went around the world, had lost a day. Although the Patagonia had changed owners, and was now no longer a royal mail steam-ship, it had not yet fallen to the low estate of the sea-tramp, a home less wanderer over the face of the waters, bearing hides from Buenos Ayres on one trip, and on the next carrying coals from Newcastle. She still belonged to a line in good repute, and she still made her regular round trip every five weeks from Liverpool to New York. Thus it was that the New York newspapers had to announce one Sunday morning, after the New England Spring 'had set in with its usual severity, ' that the Patagonia' had sailed from Liver pool the day before, having on board eighty-seven first-cabin passengers and two hundred and eleven in the steerage, and bringing also in gold. In due course the 'patagonia ought to have arrived at Sandy Hook about ten days after she left the Mersey. Except when detained by stress Of weather, the Patagonia was wont to arrive off Quarantine not later than Tuesday afternoon. But on this occasion Tuesday night came, and Wed nesday night, and yet the Patagonia came not. It happened that the r.m.s. Barataria, ' which was then devoting its energies to the lowering of the record, had left Liverpool an hour later than the Patagonia, ' had waited for the mails at Queenstown, as the Patagonia had not, and yet had landed its passengers on Sunday morning. Nor did the Officers of the Barataria' report any storms which would justify the tardiness of the Patagonia.' It was known, however, that the missing ship was perfectly sea-worthy, and, indeed, in excellent con dition, and her captain was a thorough sailor. So many little mishaps may occur to delay an ocean steamer - the bearings may get themselves over heated, or it may be necessary to stop the engines in mid-ocean to repack the steam-chest - that no anxiety was felt by the public.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from From the Lips of the Sea This morning more mysterious seems the sea Than yesterday when, with reverberant roar, It charged upon the beaches, and the sky Above it shimmered cloudless. Now the waves Lap languorously along the foamless sand And all the far horizon swims in mist. Out Of this murk, across this Oily sweep, Might lost armadas grandly sail to shore Jason might oar on Argo, or the stern Surge-wanderer from Ithaca's bleak isle Break on the sight, or Viking prows appear, And still not waken wonder. Aye, the sound Of siren singing might drift o'er the main And yet not fall upon amazed ears!

When a friend Of mine is sailing I send him a few pills out of a recent bottle. If he reports that he was sea-sick I throw away the bal ance of the bottle. The same if he dies. That shows that the pills are too strong. I do not wish to take undue credit to myself for conducting these experiments. Since the pills are given to me, my researches cost me nothing - excepting an occasional friend whom (as he was sailing for Europe anyway) I should not be able to see, even if he were alive. J. S.
