The Voyages of the Ranger and Crusader

By William Henry Giles Kingston

Book Overview

"Harry, my boy; another slice of beef?" said Major Shafto, addressing his fine young sailor-son, a passed midshipman, lately come home from sea. "No, thank you, since I could not, if I took it, pay due respect to the mince-pies and plum-pudding; but Willy here can manage another slice, I daresay. He has a notion, that he will have to feed for the future on 'salt junk' and 'hard tack.'" Willy Dicey was going to sea, and had just been appointed to Harry Shafto's ship, the "Ranger."
