Omschrijving

Poor Jack is a novel written by Captain Frederick Marryat, first published in 1840. The story follows the life of a young boy named Jack, who is born on a British naval ship and grows up to become a sailor himself. Jack faces many challenges throughout his life, including being kidnapped by pirates and surviving a shipwreck. He also experiences the harsh realities of life at sea, including the brutal punishments and harsh conditions that sailors must endure. Along the way, Jack learns important lessons about courage, loyalty, and perseverance. The novel is a vivid portrayal of life in the British navy during the 19th century, and it offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of sailors and their struggles. With its vivid characters, exciting plot, and insightful commentary on the human condition, Poor Jack is a classic work of maritime literature that continues to captivate readers today.One scene between my mother and me may serve as a specimen for all. I would come home with my trousers tucked up, and my high-lows unlaced and full of water, sucking every time that I lifted up my leg, and marking the white sanded floor of the front room, as I proceeded through it to the back kitchen. My mother would come downstairs, and perceiving the marks I had left, would get angry, and as usual commence singing.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
