Packed with practical advice, this is a dictionary with a difference: many words are illustrated by passages from classic books of the sea, others by the authors experiences aboard an American schooner with a European engine and two boxes of tools. Sample entries from this informative and entertaining dictionary include:</p><p>Bermuda Triangle: Given a choice between alien creatures and bad weather combined with inept seamanship and navigation, you should vote for the latter every time.
