NO PARADISE
A Chronicle of the Merchant Navy
by Robin King
In essence , NO PARADISE is a behind the scenes description of the rough and tumble of life (for the crew) on the big liners which sailed the oceans of the world.
A seaman is no angel, and the sketches of "Curly" a deck-hand or of "Ginger" a steward, to mention but two are frank but representative of their types.
This book will come as a remarkable document to anyone who has travelled in a ship
