tensifies the picture of the sea which Mr. Bullen had

the monsters of the deep, superstitions and tales of the sailors--all
find a place in this strange and exciting book."--_Chicago

with color and throbs with movement."--_Philadelphia Item._

eighteenth century between battle-ships under sail."--_New York Mail and
Express._

romances that are now in vogue."--_Spirit of the Times._
"Mr. Brady's vigorous style, vivid imagination, and dramatic force are
most happily exhibited in this book."--_Philadelphia Press._

as the best popular life yet available. The book is one to buy and own.
It is more interesting than any novel, and better written than most
histories."--_Nautical Gazette._
