I never understood the sea before or the men who go to sea. Why did you write the book, Daniel? It wasn't merely to save the house for me.
Capt. Daniel Gregg:
Partly that... for you and the retired seamen you leave it to in your will... but mostly to help people understand... to *make* them understand. All those comfortable swabs who sit at home on their beam-ends, reveling in the luxuries that seamen risk their lives to bring to them... and despising the poor devils if they so much as touch a drop of rum and even sneering at people who try to do them some good... like you and me.
