A Chaplain Afloat And Ashore is a memoir written by Samuel Hill Ray about his experiences as a chaplain in the United States Navy during World War II. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part focusing on Ray's time at sea and the second part on his experiences on land.Throughout the book, Ray provides vivid descriptions of life aboard a navy ship, including the challenges of ministering to sailors in such close quarters. He also recounts his interactions with sailors from all walks of life, including those who were deeply religious and those who were skeptical of religion.In the second part of the book, Ray describes his experiences on land, including his work with wounded soldiers and his efforts to help families cope with the loss of loved ones. He also reflects on the impact of war on his own faith and his struggles to reconcile the violence he witnessed with his beliefs.Overall, A Chaplain Afloat And Ashore provides a unique perspective on the role of religion in wartime and the challenges faced by those who provide spiritual guidance to soldiers and sailors.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
