A vivid account of life on the ships MontanaWhittier and Nearchus by George Goodwin of Calais, Maine, who served as mate on these post-Civil War ships in the East Indies and Cape Horn trade.  Tales of crews, captains, cargos, navigation arts, ocean races, exotic ports, near disasters—all are part of Goodwin’s memories of the days before he himself became a well-known shipmaster.
