Ship's Company is a novel by W.W. Jacobs that was first published in 1901. The story follows the adventures of a group of sailors who are aboard the merchant ship Crichton during a voyage from London to South America. The ship's crew is made up of a diverse group of characters, including the captain, the first mate, and a number of sailors with their own unique personalities and quirks. As they journey across the ocean, the crew encounters a number of challenges and obstacles, including storms, mutiny, and encounters with pirates. Along the way, they must work together to overcome these challenges and ensure the safe delivery of their cargo. The novel is known for its vivid descriptions of life at sea and its portrayal of the camaraderie and loyalty that can develop among sailors. It is a classic work of maritime fiction and is still widely read and enjoyed today.Cap'n Tarbell was the man I tried to do a good turn to; a man what used to be master of a ketch called the Lizzie and Annie, trading between 'ere and Shoremouth. 'Artful Jack' he used to be called, and if ever a man deserved the name, he did. A widder-man of about fifty, and as silly as a boy of fifteen. He 'ad been talking of getting married agin for over ten years, and, thinking it was only talk, I didn't give 'im any good advice. Then he told me one night that 'e was keeping company with a woman named Lamb, who lived at a place near Shoremouth.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
