Seller's Description:
VG pb. Mysterious stories about the sea Messengers at the Window; The Voodoo Woman, The Ghost Ship, The Derelict, Kentucky's Ghost. Seafarers have always been notorioiusly superstitious. What other class of people subject themselves to the whim of the sea, a mysterious, implacable, deeply inhuman of the sea. Recognizing their helplessness, sailors have always at first make the great adversary understandable by giving the status of god. A god, after all could be placated with prayers and offerings and the early seamen did thait best in that line up to and including sacrifice. but sooner or later came the stark realization that has chilled the sailor throughout history. The sea can't be bribed, the sea simply doesn't care--about human beings or anything else. For them magic was still the answer elaborate taboos and ritual they sould have found laughable ashore. Never leave port on a Friday, never sail with a parson aboard, never change a ship's name. Includes press release from Yankee Books and b&w photo of book's cover.
