Short Fiction Roberts, Morley: Tales of Changing Seas (1927); v1; 12 Aug 2020

Brawling, often humorous tales of seaman at sea in the period of the transition from sail to steam, by Morley Roberts (1847-1942). Roberts was a journalist, and a prolific writer of short stories. These tales were all published in magazines early 1900s, before being collected in this volume in 1927. It is a rare book, and I could find no original cover, so made one using a photograph of my own.

Short stories and novelettes:
1: The Extra Hands of the Nemesis
2: The Captain of the Ullswater
3: Jack-All-Alone
4: The Crew of the Kamma Funder
5: The Rehabilitation of the Vigia
6: The Scuttling of the Pandora
7: The Promotion of the Admiral
8: The Lofty-Minded Mariner
