To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

I felt just at that time that if all the Yon Tromps, Kel- sons, Decaturs, and Hulls were condensed into one man, he would not be my equal at handling and navigating a ship. But the lesson was taught me before this voyage I now describe was completed, and I have profited by it ever since, that it is never wise to be sure of our po- sition, or to feel that we have nothing to learn. With everything ...set that would draw, including the starboard studding-sail, we crossed the North Sea, and so went through the Strait of Dover and out of the English Channel without touching a brace except to tauten it. I established a rule for myself never to turn in at night while at sea except during a calm. By daylight the ship- master can trust his officers to carry sail, but if he w r ants to make a quick passage ho must keep the deck himself 148 FROM THE FORECASTLE TO THE CABIN.
