A compendium of sea related stories published by Yankee Magazine, this book is very interesting however I found it best to read one story at a time as many of stories, especially in the beginning, are very similar in nature and result. The last half of the book was a much richer variety of stories which I preferred.

A really fun compilation of stories - some I was familiar with, and others were new to me. I really enjoyed these stories!
