Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Robert Howe's short time in the Merchant Navy gave him a wealth of experiences and took him around the world. He saw some of Africa and Hong Kong when they were still British Protectorates, and South Africa under apartheid. He has had such diverse occupations as a cook at a London hospital to serving in the Diplomatic Corp. This, his fourth book follows on from his memoir, I'll Give It Six Months, and covers his time in the Merchant Navy. A rare look at life at sea in the 60s. Now retired, he lives near his favourite city Chester with his wife Linda Fraser-Webb and now only goes to sea as a passenger.
