Adventure & the Sea
Wide horizons and long odds.
The ship that does not come back, the map with a cross on it, the man who walks out of a comfortable life and into weather. Adventure was the nineteenth century’s most popular literature and remains its most underrated — these books move because their authors knew exactly how much to withhold.
