A Sailor’s Garland (1906)

A Sailor's Garland is a collection of poems written by John Masefield, first published in 1906. The book is a tribute to the sailors and their lives at sea. Masefield, who himself served as a sailor in his youth, captures the essence of the sea and the sailors' experiences in his poems. The collection is divided into three parts, each focusing on a different aspect of the sailor's life: the sea, the ships, and the sailors themselves. The poems are written in a variety of styles, ranging from ballads to free verse, and are accompanied by illustrations by Charles Pears. The book is a celebration of the sea and the sailors who have braved its dangers, and is a must-read for anyone interested in maritime literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
