Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

It is1972 in the United Kingdom and the Prime Minister, Ted Heath,
is declaring a three day working week and a State of Emergency as
the Coalminer s Strike begins to bite. Abba are topping the charts
and Monty Python s Flying Circus are offering us something
completely different on BBC2. Behind the backdrop of this we follow
John Caswell, a football mad 15 year old from the Midlands as he
embarks on his fi nal year at Kettering Grammar School. We suffer
with him as he agonizes over his O levels in the summer of 1973
culminating in mixed results and fi nds himself working in an offi
ce in a Builders Merchants with little idea of how his life is
going to take off. Later that year John meets and becomes totally
infl uenced by his sister s boyfriend who is in the Merchant Navy.
Convinced this is the life for him John then goes to the National
Sea Training School in Gravesend and we follow his exciting passage
through the three month Lifeboat and Effi cient Deck Hand course
before embarking on his fi rst trip to sea in September 1974
onboard the Anco Empress . We then follow him on an adventure
across the oceans and upon the high seas around the World, crossing
the Equator, learning his new skills and transforming a shy, timid
and naive young man into an adult via Rotterdam, Montreal, New
York, New Orleans, Rio De Janeiro, Durban and back to Rotterdam
with hilarious and embarrassing consequences as he comes to terms
with his ever changing environments and the social demands of a
work hard / play hard regime.
