I think I'll go to sea. - Paperback

by Bob Jackson (Author)

Deck Apprentice at 17 in the prestigious Port Line, Bob Jackson's life at sea began with a voyage to Australia. By 37 he was Skipper, trading to the Middle East. In the intervening twenty years he survived the deep freeze of a Canadian winter, wild Atlantic storms and Christmas beach barbecues in Melbourne. From a year on a tramp vessel to a stint on a vast bulk carrier, Bob's experiences are of a world that no longer exists.
