Description
The Best of Days: A Memoir of the Sea
A memoir of journeys into deep waters on merchant ships, this book takes the reader on a journey from tranquil tropical harbours to violent storms far from shore. The story begins with humble origins on the coast of County Durham, surrounded by family still coming to terms with the Great War.
The author's experiences in the Merchant Navy in the 1950s are a highlight of the book, offering a glimpse into the most glorious days of this often-overlooked profession. Now living near Whitby on the Yorkshire coast, the author reflects on a lifetime of adventure and discovery.
