Salt Water Taffy or Twenty Thousand Leagues Away From The Sea is a thrilling and heartwarming tale that will captivate readers of all ages.1929. The Almost Incredible Autobiography of Captain Ezra Triplett�������s Seafaring Daughter. With 34 illustrations. A cleverly disguised novel in the form of an autobiography written by the fictional character June Triplett; the heroine of the bestseller Salt Water Taffy. The book is a comic tale of life aboard a whaler at the beginning of the 20th century and the running joke of the book is how many spankings its heroine is subjected to throughout her rough sea faring childhood and adolescence. Many of the puns and jokes in this tall tale revolve around the motion picture industry and popular culture of the 1920's. Hiring beautiful young women to play the characters in the books he published and sending them, on book tours, was the brainchild of the publisher, George Putnam.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
