This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1886 edition. Excerpt: ... He passes last round the upper deck between the two lines of blue-jackets drawn up bareheaded and in their Sunday uniform.
