Produktbeschreibung
A quiet voyage becomes a bold compass for the imagination. Cast Away In The Cold draws you into the fraught world of North Atlantic winds, old sailors and a young man whose courage expands with every gale. This volume offers a concise, gripping maritime memoir told through the steady voice of Captain John Hardy, mariner. It blends a voyage narrative with intimate observation, turning a shipboard journey into a meditation on youth, peril, and resilience. The tension of shipwreck survival is explored through practical seamanship, keen description, and a humane curiosity about character under pressure. For readers drawn to maritime history enthusiasts and classic literature readers alike, the book serves as both adventure and archive-the kind of old sailor memoirs that enrich classroom teaching resources and personal library alike. A note on literary and historical significance underlines why this title endures: it preserves a window into the age of sail and the northern seas setting, inviting fresh discovery while honouring tradition. The prose honours Phillips and voyage literature traditions, yet remains accessible to modern readers, making it a compelling entry point for new fans and a cherished addition for collectors. Selling points: ¿ Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. ¿ Restored for today's and future generations. ¿ More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure.
