Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Doyle's New Instruction Book on Ocean Bathing, Swimming, and Boating
I might not have been living today to tell the story if I did not know how to use the ocean. It was through a frightful and timely lesson I learned in August, 1887, and I will never forget it if I live ninety-nine years. It was only a few weeks after I had performed one of the greatest rescues on the Atlantic coast.
