One of the most vivid recreations of life at sea ever published...

In 1834, a young Harvard man signed on as a common seaman for a perilous voyage around Cape Horn to California. During the next two years he recorded the joys and hardships of a sailor's life in a daily journal. The enormously successful result is both a protest against brutal working conditions and a powerful portrayal of the testing of man's courage and urance.
