Summary

Sea stories are, plain and simple, wonderful springboards for vicarious adventure. There is nothing like a sea story to entertain, thrill, move, shock, or inspire a reader, and this collection will do just that.

What is it about the sea that lends itself to so many indelibly classic stories? The sea is a wonderful stage on which to unroll a dramatic narrative or introduce a heroic character. It’s no wonder so many masterpieces are set on the seas of the world.

Critics Review

NetGalley Review: 4 stars

“Get ready to set sail on the high seas - and get lost along the way!

As I was reading through this book, I really loved it. These Sea Stories were amazing, and I think I actually got sea-sick from my couch a few times as we were pitching through the storms and the different tragedies that beset the different ships that were discussed in this book.

Sea Stories takes you on different adventures, each tragedy besetting ships and crews, and their fight to survive the high seas.

I loved reading through this book! It was absolutely amazing! I highly recommend reading through this book!

Thank you to Rowman and Littlefield, Lyons Press for an advanced copy of this book. The review and opinions above are entirely those of the reviewer.

“I think this book would make a fabulous gift for an adventure seeker or a history lover. I read this in small doses, one story at a time, often using the internet to learn more. Any book that has me investigating is a great one for me. “–MarnieCompeggie, reviewer at MeanderingM
