Book Review of the wreck of the mary deare

the wreck of the mary deare


"Hammond Innes, writing as always of the struggle of man against the elements, for the first time takes the most violent element of all for his protagonist. The sea thunders through the pages of this book. And in Gideon Patch, master of the Mary Deare, we have a character worthy of the element. This is a great sea story."
