An institution among sailors, merchant mariners, and dreamers of all stripes, The Mariner's Book of Days, now in its thirteenth year, is an ever-growing encyclopedia of nautical fact, fiction, and folklore, and has been hailed as the best, most entertaining nautical desk diary and calendar to see print. An invaluable reference, each annual edition is completely different from its predecessors, and all have gone on to become collector's items. On every right-hand page is a week of days, with the nautical significance of each explored in brief by the author. On each left-hand page is a collection of nautical miscellany evoking the rich traditions of the sea. It is a timeless companion that deserves a place on any bookshelf long after its work as a calendar is done. Entertaining, informative, and illustrated with a variety of lovely etchings, engravings, sketches, and watercolors, The Mariner's Book of Days will take you on a 365-day voyage through history.
