Excerpt from The Trawler John Snow said nothing; Mrs. Snow said nothing. Saul looked to me, but I gave no sign that I had heard him. Only John Snow's niece, Mary, looking up from her hands folded in her lap, said: Surely you must find it painful, Saul Haverick, to ship with such a wicked man and take the big shares of money that fall to his crew?

The Young Trawler: Large Print By R. M. Ballantyne Introduces Deep-Sea Fishermen And their Families. On a certain breezy morning in October-not many years ago-a wilderness of foam rioted wildly over those dangerous sands which lie off the port of Yarmouth, where the Evening Star, fishing-smack, was getting ready for sea. In one of the narrow lanes or "Rows" peculiar to that town, the skipper of the smack stood at his own door, grumbling. He was a broad burly man, a little past the prime of life, but prematurely aged by hard work and hard living. "He's always out o' the way when he's wanted, an' always in the way when he's not wanted," said the skipper angrily to his wife, of whom he was at the moment taking, as one of his mates remarked, a tender farewell. "Don't be hard on him, David," pleaded the wife, tearfully, as she looked up in her husband's face. "He's only a bit thoughtless; and I shouldn't wonder if he was already down at the smack." "If he's not," returned the fisherman with a frown, as he clenched his huge right hand-and a hard and horny hand it was, from constant grappling with ropes, oars, hand-spikes, and the like-"if he's not, I'll-" He stopped abruptly, as he looked down at his wife's eyes, and the frown faded. No wonder, for that wife's eyes were soft and gentle, and her face was fair and very attractive as well as refined in expression, though not particularly pretty. "Well, old girl, come, I won't be hard on 'im. Now I'm off, -good-day." And with that the fisherman stooped to kiss his wife, who returned the salute with interest. At the same time she thrust a packet into his hand. We are delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection.

Excerpt from Peter Trawl: Or the Adventures of a Whaler Rother jack, a seaman's bag over his shoulders, B trudged sturdily ahead; father followed, carrying the oars, spars, sails, and other gear of the Wherry, While as I toddled alongside him I held on with one hand to the skirt of his pea-jacket, and griped the boat-hook which had been given to my charge with the other. From the front of the well-known inn, the Keppel's Head the portrait of the brave old admiral, which I always looked at with awe and admiration, thinking What a great man he must have been, gazed sternly down on us as we made our way along the Common Hard of Portsea towards the water's edge. Father and Jack hauled in the Wherry, and having deposited their burdens in her, set to work to mop her out and to put her to rights, while I stood, still grasping the boat-hook, which I held upright with the point in the ground, watching their proceedings, till father, lifting me Up in his arms, placed me in the sternsheets.

Excerpt from The Yacht Club: Or the Young Boat-Builder The hero is a young man of high Ms and noble purposes and the writer believes that it is unpardonable to awaken the interest and sympathy of his readers for any other than high minded and well-meaning characters. But he is not faultless; he makes some grave mistakes, even while he has high aims. The most important lesson in morals to be derived from his experience is that it is unwise and dangerous for young people to conceal their actions from their parents and friends; and that men and women who seek concealment choose darkness be cause their deeds are evil.
