Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book, an autobiography transcribed from the handwritten records of Charles Biddle, narrates the author's life from childhood to his early twenties. Born to a family of mixed fortunes, Biddle went to sea at the age of 14 as a midshipman. His early career took him to Spain, Portugal, the West Indies, and Central America, learning the life of a sailor first-hand. His experiences provided not only maritime lessons, but invaluable glimpses into the lives and customs of ports of call during the mid to late 18th century. The author provides detailed accounts of episodes that demonstrate the realities of life at sea and ashore. Biddle's unvarnished adventures offer a unique view of the period, preserving the details of people and places encountered along far-flung trade routes. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N� de r�f. du vendeur 9781330908785_0
