To Gibraltar And Back In An Eighteen Tonner is a memoir written by a member of the crew who sailed from England to Gibraltar and back in a small sailing vessel in 1888. The book provides a detailed account of the challenges and adventures faced by the crew during their voyage, including treacherous weather conditions, encounters with pirates, and the difficulties of living on a small boat for an extended period of time. The author also shares insights into the daily life of a sailor in the late 19th century, including the hierarchy on board, the duties of each crew member, and the various tools and techniques used for navigation and maintenance. The book offers a fascinating glimpse into a bygone era of seafaring and is a must-read for anyone interested in maritime history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
