Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Wilson, Edw. A. (illustrator). Neuware - Deep Sea Chanties offers a unique lens upon seafaring life punctuated with fabulous woodcut illustrations by Edward A. Wilson. From the editor, Frank Shay: 'In bringing these songs together I have sought to catch for the moment the spirit of the men of the clipper-ship era. That glorious period, marked roughly by the Mexican War and the California gold rush, is finding perpetuation in the enthusiasms of those who love the sea and ships. Ship models, romances and tales of the sea, log books and nautical instruments so eagerly sought after by these enthusiasts are, after all, but outward symbols of the men who trod the decks and warped and reefed the sails. Those deeds were not accomplished with out song and the songs they sang were from their own souls: not written for them by poets and ballad-mongers. In reading them we are made privy not only to the singer but to the audience: their thoughts, their lives, and their environment.' This new edition is dedicated to India D'Avignon, lifelong champion of the importance of music in our daily lives.

"Full and By, the situation of a ship with regard to the wind, when she is close hauled, and sailing in such a manner as neither to steer too nigh the direction of the wind, nor deviate to leeward; both of which movements are unfavorable to her course, as in the former her sails will shiver and render the effort of the wind precarious and ineffectual; and in the latter she will advance in a direction widely distant from her real course. Hence, keep her full! is the order from the pilot or other officer to the helmsman not to incline too much to windward, and thereby shake the sails so as to retard the Course."
