About This Book

A passenger keeps a daily journal of a transatlantic voyage aboard a three‑masted sailing ship, recording navigation through coastal channels, the vessel’s construction and handling, and impressions of the captain, officers and crew. Entries catalogue fellow travelers and the shipboard routines that govern meals and daily life, note professional seamanship and occasional seasickness, and trace how prolonged confinement fosters acquaintance and curiosity among passengers. Technical observations and personal reflections alternate, and the diary builds a quiet suspense about unfolding events and the characters who may shape them.
