Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sailors' Life: And Sailors' Yarns "A Sailor's life is the life of a dog." So says every old salt, and still he persists in being canine. The truth is, that contentment is a jewel much sought after, but seldom found: for it matters not what may be the profession, trade or occupation of any individual, he always considers it as more onerous than that of his neighbour. The three learned professions are as subject to these remarks as any other business of the world may be. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Yarns written by Tristan Jones and published by Open Road Media. This book was released on 2014-04-01 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A pleasure . . . a brilliant collection of yarns about [a British mariner’s] life, his sailing adventures, and his thoughts about man and the sea.” —Lloyd's List In Yarns, legendary sailor and adventurer Tristan Jones tells stories of his remarkable life at sea. Along with tales of the beautiful cruises he has made around the world and the memorable people he has met along the way, Jones has advice for his readers on everything from captaining a boat to engaging with locals in remote locations. He proposes his own theory for the mystery of the ghost ship Mary Celeste. Other yarns include a story of a troubled steamship, his accounts of an unlikely salvage operation in Ibiza, a strange rendezvous on the coast of Africa, and his chance encounter with a renowned American sailor. Jones even shares what prompted him to begin writing in the first place—a turn of fortune that sailing and reading fans have lauded him for ever since. “The characters and capers, including a Sherlock Holmes-style mystery, pour deliciously from the pen of this legendary adventurer.” —Cruising World

Book excerpt: An Old Sailor's Yarns by N. Ames. Mr. Buckingham, noticing the "Nautical Reminiscences" in the New England Magazine, says, no author ever stopped at the second book; and he very gravely proceeds to recommend that my number three should savor more of the style of Goldsmith or Washington Irving. I should have no objection whatever to writing like either of these distinguished authors, if I could; but as the case is, I must be content to write as well as I can. The whole article in Mr. B's magazine bore no faint resemblance to a dose of calomel and jalap, administered in a table-spoonful of molasses, in which the sweet and the nauseous are so equally balanced, that the patient is in doubt whether to spit or to swallow. I was, however, exceedingly flattered with the notice bestowed upon me by this literary cynic, as he was never before known to speak well, even moderately, of any author, except natives of Boston, or professors in Harvard University. "Morton" is founded upon an old tradition, now forgotten, but well known when I first went to sea, of the exploits of some of our adventurous and somewhat lawless traders in the Pacific. A number of the crew of one of these smuggling vessels were taken in the act, and, after a hasty trial, ordered to be sent to the mines. The route to their place of condemnation and hopeless confinement lay near the coast. A large party of seamen landed from two or three ships that were in the neighborhood, waylaid the military escort, knocked most of them on the head, rescued the prisoners, and got safe off without loss. The story says nothing of female influence or assistance, but knowing it to be morally impossible to get through a story without the assistance of a lady, I pressed one into the service, and took other liberties with the original, till it became what peradventure the reader will find it. Many stories are told of the skirmishes, or as sailors call them, "scrammidges," between our "free-traders" and the guarda-costas in different parts of the Pacific. In particular, the ship D----, of Boston, is said to have had a "regular-built fight" with a guarda-costa of forty-four guns, that retired from the action so miserably mauled, that it is doubtful to this day whether she ever found her way back into port. An old sea-dog who was on board the D----, furnished me with many details of the proceedings of our merchantmen on the coasts of California, and Mexico, some thirty years since, but most of them have escaped my memory.

Book excerpt: Like most sailors yarns this collection varies from the totally fictitious products of the author's fervid imagination, through the partly fictitious yarns based on events experienced or heard of, up to the almost literal narratives of actual events and real letters where only some of the names have been changed and perhaps memories have mellowed with time. See if you can pick which is which but, be careful, some of the weirdest ones are true.
