Cloth. Zustand: Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Near Fine. First Edition. Hardback. First Edition. Under Steam and Sail. Here is a book for old salts and landlubbers alike. The former will relive old voyages, be reminded of familiar pleasures and perils. The latter will learn much and better understand the lures and risks ash…ore. The author is a Norwegian Sea Captain, a latter-day Norseman with blood of English sea-dogs in his veins and half a century's experience of The Seven Seas. Whether describing his actual escape from a Nzi firing-squad or near-escapes from hurricanes, Wall Street sharks or Chilian chicancery, Captain Wilson has siled close to the wind in more ways than one. As a result of an early episode a loophone in Norwegian law was discovered and there is a legal document named after him and he caused also an addition to the Laws of Malta. He is proud that his doggedness proved that Phoenician traders had ventured further north than was previous believed. His tale is fitting testimony to a life lived to the full. 120 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions, Reference books ,and all types of Academic Literature.).
