Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. In the late 19th century when being employed by a decent skipper was rare among North Sea fishermen, this young manâs experience was unique. After getting a job on a steam trawler to expose the unscrupulous practices of its owner, the author found the crew to be the opposite of what he expected. His account shows the brutality, ignorance, and superstition rife among the largely uneducated fishermen, with whom he quickly made an enemy of the ill-tempered skipper. While revealing the grim realities of life on a steam trawler, this book also highlights the themes of friendship, superstition, and the importance of education. The authorâs firsthand account of daily life provides a fascinating historical account of a bygone era.
