Product Description
John Guest has written this very interesting and informative book after many years of research into seafaring traditions, stories, and the history of the sea. An "Old Salt" himself, this book was the next, natural step for John after his retirement from the U.S. Coast Guard. In this book you'll find the origins of sea-born words that have come ashore, and stories of famous and infamous ships and people. This book will fulfill the common interest for little known seafaring facts we all have in our lives. It will definitely answer the question, "I wonder where that started?" Everyone from the armchair sailor to the life-long sea dog will be amused, educated, and often dumbfounded as the pages are turned.
