Two Years Before the Mast: A Sailor's Life at Sea by Richard Henry Dana Jr.

3.0

Mizzen! Jib! Top'sl! Stay'sl! Focsle! Reef'sl! Gallant'sl! Expect to hear those words over and over and over. The most valuable part of this book is historical, especially California in the 1840s, a completely alien place.
