The Annotated Two Years Before the Mast (Hardcover)

A true story of the battered life of a foremast crewman, Two Years Before the Mast is Richard Henry Dana s classic travel narrative, which inspired canonical works such as Moby Dick and Sailing Alone Around the World. As Rod Scher follows Dana (the Harvard dropout-turned-sailor) on his voyages around North America, he annotates Dana s tale with critiques, compliments, tie-ins to today, and little-known facts about both the book and the milieu of Dana s time.
