Produktbeschreibung
A seaborne coming-of-age tale that still speaks to young explorers today. Ben Burton: Born And Bred At Sea restores a vanished world of hard-won seamanship and fearless curiosity. Set against the backdrop of nineteenth-century Britain, Kingston's youthful adventures unfold with the realism of life at sea, the discipline aboard ship, and the turn-of-the- tide challenges that test character as surely as weather tests rigging. It is a complete nautical adventure that pairs vivid voyage fiction with the slow, steady craft of growing up, offering both fast-paced incident and thoughtful reflection for readers on a voyage of self-discovery. This republished edition is more than a reprint; it is a heartfelt revival. Alpha Editions has restored the text for today's and future generations, preserving the novel's colour, cadence, and historical texture while inviting new readers to experience a classic seamanship tale. It will appeal to casual readers drawn to sea-salt storytelling and to classic-literature collectors who value a well-made edition of a cherished juvenile adventure. A natural fit for classrooms and family libraries, this enduring title sits squarely in the overlap of life at sea, youth apprenticeship at sea, and voyage fiction. Ideal for a classroom reading list or for for young readers seeking a complete nautical adventure, the book invites both immersion in tropical seas and reflection on the values of courage, responsibility, and camaraderie.
