Informazioni su questo libro
THE WHITE GHOST OF DISASTER (The Chief Mate's Yarn.) A sea story by CAPT. MAYN CLEW GARNETT. A story of an ocean liner, which betrays a marvellous similarity to the disaster that befell the ill-fated TITANIC. Thirteen short stories whose initial one, the story of the title, parallels in many points the Titanic catastrophe. The "white ghost" is a monster iceberg against which an ocean liner is driven with such force that her bows are jammed a hundred feet into seemingly impregnable ice. The other tales are: The light ahead; The wreck of the "Rathbone"; The after bulkhead; Captain Junard; In the wake of the engine; In the hull of the 'Heraldine'; A two-stranded yarn (2 pts.); At the end of the drag-rope; Pirates twain; The judgment of men; and On going to sea. — *The Book Review Digest: Eighth Annual Cumulation, page 190.* "All of Capt. Garnett's stories deal with exciting happenings at sea and most of them with shipwrecks. They show more sea knowledge than literary craft." — *N. Y. Times.*
