Publisher's blurb:
A great collection of tall stories, but also contains plausible descriptions of the maritime districts of several seaports, including Liverpool. A fascinating history of the Sailortowns of the world: Tiger Bay, the Barbary Coast, 'Frisco, and many others. We are shown what happened to Jack after he had chased his delight up the street, the people he met and the time he had - very often the dangers he found were far greater than those at sea. Shanties complement the text in each chapter."
