21322. Gibbs, James. THE UNUSUAL SIDE OF THE SEA – A Slop Chest of Sea Lore. Seattle. 1971

  1. Gibbs, James. THE UNUSUAL SIDE OF THE SEA – A Slop Chest of Sea Lore. Seattle. 1971. 128p. Embossed stiff wraps. One of Mr. Gibb’s early books on the sea. That oceans are filled with unsolved mysteries goes without saying. The pioneering spirit of man upon the seas has gone ever forward. Where most writings about the sea record man’s triumphs, these pages record the unusual accomplishments and the folly, superstitions, freak voyages, jinxed ships and unsolved mysteries. Nicely illustrated and most interesting reading. (F). $18.
