"Things I don't care who knows when my book is written~" So begins the rough~and~tumble story from the life of Cape Breton's Captain David McLeod~a robust autobiography of saltwater and guts and passionate romance, by a man who ended his days as a storekeeper in Cleveland, Richmond County, Cape Breton Island~an angry scar across his face, the result of a mutiny on his last ship. The forward thrust of his writing is terrific. He brings life to scenes of brutality and love. From the circus riot in Port Hawkesbury to shipwreck and fistfights, love won and love lost, sea shanties and battling sails in storms~ he was a tough, tough man. "A huge sea broke over our heads, sweeping both watches off our feet. I held on to the brace with all my strength, but the terrific weight of water tore it from my grasp; sometimes my head up, then my heels, I was washed up against the main hatch, then aft against the fife rail, clutching madly at everything I rolled into the lee scupper. I was gasping for breath; Dal was gasping for breath too, but held on to the brace like grim death. Kelly and Fritz and Hans and George rolling about the deck just yellow bundles, while a bunch lay around the gear at midship. " CAPE BRETON CAPTAIN is a vigorous and touching book. It is Captain McLeod alive and feeling his oats. We have nothing comparable in Cape Breton literature. This book will last.
