Excerpt from A Deep-Water Voyage For a number of years it had been my keen ambition to make a deep-water voyage, and several times I was on the point of starting to California via the Horn; but just as I had determined upon a vessel, something deterred me each time. At length, after my friends had professed the belief many times that I never would go to sea, and that it was merely a bluff on my part, I determined that, come what would, to sea I should go, and after some little difficulty persuaded my wife that it would be of incalculable benefit to her health; so that she finally decided to try not the Cape Horn voyage, but the passage to the East round the Cape of Good Hope. For many weeks I cast about me to find not only a suitable vessel, but an agreeable and gentlemanly skipper. For taking ones wife to sea is a vastly different affair from going alone and putting up with whatever may happen along. How disagreeable for one's wife it would be to sail with a skipper who proved to be an obdurate, bad-tempered man, who resorted to blows for the men upon every occasion, or who called down sea-blessings by the fathom upon the head of the second mate because the mizzen-royal-yard was braced in an eighth of an inch too much!

Excerpt from "On the Bottom" An Epic of Deep-Sea Diving In writing this book he has unconsciously revealed his own personality. We see him as a man of iron will, calmly facing difficulties that to many with equal technical knowledge would have seemed, and did in fact seem, insuperable, confronting every blow of fate with inflexible courage, remaining cheerful when most of those about him were thoroughly disheartened by successive misfor tunes, and finally, by sheer force of character, snatching victory from the very jaws of defeat. We see him, too, as a born leader of men, one of those rare souls who can inspire others with their own indomitable faith and courage, and spur the faint-hearted on to splendid deeds.

Excerpt from Deep-Sea Sounding: A Brief Account of the Work Done by the Enterprise in Enterprise, Deep-Sea Sounding During 1883-1886 Standing against the wall of the Hydrographic Office are two large plaster casts showing the contour of the bottoms of the North and South Atlantic Oceans with their submarine peaks, plateaux, and depressions as revealed by deep-sea soundings. Prominent thereon are two submarine peaks in the South Atlantic Ocean and an extensive sand-bank several hundred miles from the coast of South America, which were discovered by the Enterprise while on a cruise around the world from 1883 to 1886 when deep-sea soundings were taken across the Atlantic, Indian, and South Pacific oceans. There is also shown to the northward of Porto Rico the deepest depression yet discovered in the North Atlantic, and into this the Enterprise sounded, bringing up a specimen of the bottom from a depth of 4529 fathoms, the position of the cast being within 40 miles of that taken by Commander Brovynson in the Blake, which showed a depth of 4561 fathoms and which to this day remains the deepest cast ever taken in the Atlantic Ocean.

Excerpt from Jack Derringer: A Tale of Deep Water I have endeavoured in this book to paint sea life as it really is, as it can be seen on any deep-water sailing-ship of the present day, without glossing over the hardships, the hard knocks, the hard words, and the continual struggle and strife of it all. At the same time I have tried to hint at the glamour and fascination which the sea breathes into such souls as respond to its mighty call. As to the queer collection of flotsam which found itself in the down-easter's foc's'le, I can assure my readers that this mixed crowd is in no way unusual; in fact, I am quite certain that the greater number of sailing ships "bound deep water" at the present moment are manned by crews of an even worse mixture of nationalities, trades, and creeds than formed the complement of the Higgins, which, for a ship sailing out of San Francisco, when seamen were scarce, was singularly lucky in finding so many bona-fide sailormen amongst her crew.

Excerpt from The Fisheries and Fishery Industries of the United States It is now nearly four hundred years Since these grounds were first fished upon by Europeans, and their resources are still unfailing; but the fishing interests have been mainly transferred to the New World, France alone of European countries having continued to send fishing vessels across the Atlantic down to 1880. Since then, however, the Portuguese have begun to exhibit some activity in connection with the cod fishery of the Grand Bank, and in the Spring and sum mer of 1885 bought several New England fishing schooners and fitted out others from home ports. Their voyages proving generally successful, they have added more vessels to their fishing fleet during the latter part of this year, and it is quite possible that, in the course of a few seasons.
