This is Peter Nichols' 1st novel, and in it he spins a powerful story, awe-inspiring for its knowledge of ships and the sea, deft in its depiction of harrowing events, and exhilarating for the quality of writing and the story's moral depth. A gripping novel in the tradition of Melville, Conrad, and Jack London. A trade-size softcover.
