The book is in very good+ condition (black cloth boards with silver lettering to spine) with light creasing to the top and bottom of the spine. The book is in a very good clipped dust jacket that has light creasing to the top and bottom of the front cover and top of the spine. The inner dust jacket and page edges are lightly age spotted. Internally, the pages are lightly age tanned but otherwise clean and tight and there are no tears or other inscriptions.
A thrilling story of man and the sea and the inescapable power of nature.
Philip Marsden's brilliant first novel is set in Cornwall, in the mid-1930s. The bustling coastal community of Polmayne is on the threshold of the modern age - fishing is in decline, electricity has just arrived and the village is flanked by building sites and brand-new holiday villas.
When Jack Sweeney arrives, bankrupt and alone, he finds himself transformed by the presence of the sea. He discovers he has the attribute most prized among the town's struggling fishermen: luck. He buys a boat, and becomes a member of the lifeboat crew. He falls in love. But in the hardy enthusiasm for his new life are the seeds of tragedy.
264 pages.
