Book excerpt: A classic of nautical erudition, this volume enumerates and clarifies the multitude of terms and phrases relating to the sea.

Words and terms ranging from the technical to the fanciful, all pertaining to the world of sailors, vessels, and marine life, are arranged and defined with both the salty dog and the landlubber in mind. No other single work approaches the exhaustive coverage of this unique book.
