1979, American hardcover edition, Norton, NY. 219 pages. B&W vintage photos throughout. This title is a real find, an in-depth, up close and personal look at a certain boy who went to sea and is able to recall the events of 25 voyages in fast clippers, transporting cargo all over the world. This true tale is at times almost astonishing as a young man undertakes many voyages through dangerous waters. The events described occur between 1865 and 1892.

"In June 1824 still on HMS Larne he took part in a skirmish en route from Rangoon to Kemmendine and showed great gallantry and on 10th commanded a small fleet against native attacks. On 8 July he commanded HMS Satellite accompanied by a body of troops under Sir Archibald Campbell on a trip inland on the Yangon River. Three other armed vessels, HMS Teignmouth, HMS Thetis and HMS Jessey were also under Fraser's overall command on this journey. And attacked inland stockades acting on behalf of the East India Company. On 8 August a parallel attack was made on stockades on the Dalla River. He made a second attack on the Dalla River on 2 September accompanied by Captain Marryat. The 400 troops taken on this mission were under command of Major R L Evans. By mid September the crew of the Larne were heavily affected by scurvy and Marryat ordered the ship to Penang for recovery. The ship and crew ultimately went to Calcutta to recover, returning to the conflict area on 24 December." (from Wikipedia). Seller Inventory # A48529
