Here is a memoir of journeys into deep waters on merchant ships. There are tranquil tropical harbours and violent storms far from shore. We are in the wireless room when ships are calling for help. The story begins with humble origins on the coast of County Durham surrounded by family still coming to terms with the Great War. The author's father went to war on horseback, yet in this memoir we are on the brink of the modern world. The writer was fortunate to join the Merchant Navy in the 1950s, and know its most glorious days. Harry Nicholson now lives near Whitby, on the Yorkshire coast. The story continues in You'll See Wonders'. In 2022, a third is in process. His other books are 'Tom Fleck' a Tudor novel of Cleveland and Flodden, and its sequel 'The Black Caravel\. His collected poetry is suitably titled, 'Wandering About'.
