Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Spun Yarn: Sea Stories
The first man to climb the Almena's side-ladder from the tug was the shipping-master, and after him came the crew he had shipped. They clustered at the rail, looking around and aloft with muttered profane com ments, one to the other, While the shipping-master approached a gray-eyed giant who stood with a shorter but broader man at the poop-deck steps.
