Captain Jack ; being the reminiscences of a sea-going bookseller. John Putman Friend.
Long Beach : Seahorse Press 1963
This is unfortunately, not a book about a bookshop on a ship, as I thought when I pulled it from the shelf, but rather a bookseller who often took a break to travel and work on different ships.
He reminisces about both, with many interesting little stories about the book trade and life at sea. Illustrated in a few colors, often with the seahorse motif.
