Synopsis

Set sail with a lively, close-knit family as they ride a cargo ship to distant shores and face love, loss, and laughter on the voyage.

On a passenger ship bound for distant Australia, a young narrator watches a motley cast of characters unfold from the dining salons to the engine room. The journey blends humor, warmth, and a hint of romance as families, dancers, and veterans share stories, worries, and hopes while the sea keeps time with their adventures. The voyage becomes a small world of teasing, tenderness, and growing bonds that hint at brighter horizons ahead.

- Meet a clever, caring mother and a witty, affectionate father who navigate love and family pride.
- Watch alliances form and flirtations spark amid shipboard routines and quiet, honest conversations.
- Feel the tug of home as distant lands approach and the unknown promises both challenge and chance.
- Experience occasional mischief, stubborn pride, and the moments of quiet awe that drift at the edge of a long sea crossing.

Ideal for readers who enjoy warm, character-driven maritime tales that mix humor with heartfelt moments and a snapshot of mid?century voyage life.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Leopold Classic Library is delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive collection. As part of our on-going commitment to delivering value to the reader, we have also provided you with a link to a website, where you may download a digital version of this work for free. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. Whilst the books in this collection have not been hand curated, an aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature. As a result of this book being first published many decades ago, it may have occasional imperfections. These imperfections may include poor picture quality, blurred or missing text. While some of these imperfections may have appeared in the original work, others may have resulted from the scanning process that has been applied. However, our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. While some publishers have applied optical character recognition (OCR), this approach has its own drawbacks, which include formatting errors, misspelt words, or the presence of inappropriate characters. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with an experience that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic book, and that the occasional imperfection that it might contain will not detract from the experience.
