Description:Excerpt from An Instrument of the Gods and Other Stories of the Sea But when I scanned my table of contents, it cc curred to me to wonder if I were playing fair with my readers in the promise of the sub-title. What constitutes a sea story? Because I was born in a gale of wind in the region of Cape Horn, because I was brought up on the quarter-deck of a sailing ship, am I at liberty to call anything I may choose to write a sea story? Hardly. Yet, on the other hand, may it not be possible that certain pieces extraneous to the sea derive a nautical aspect from the very hopelessness of my maritime preoccupation? Is it no licence that a man views the world through sailor's eyes? About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
