Description
Stories of New Zealand Seafarers.
Accounts of life at sea around the New Zealand Coast and in other parts of the Globe by sixteen men and women whose occupations and duties ranged from Deck boy, Able Seaman, Engineer, Purser, Steward, Pilot to Captain.
Maritime historian Emmanuel Makarios, himself a former Seaman, has written their stories as given to him in interviews. Together, the stories recount the days when men and women chose a career at sea as a means of seeing the World and experience adventure.
Each chapter is lavishly illustrated with colour and black and white photos which give a glimpse into the once romantic and colourful days of seafaring in New Zealand.
