520    Two Years Before the Mast is Richard Henry Dana Jr's 
       captivating account of life as a common sailor on board a 
       merchant ship in the early 1830s. Initially an attempt to 
       remedy the author's eye fatigue, the two-year voyage from 
       Boston to California had a transformative effect on Dana, 
       whose diary gives a fascinating snapshot of pre-Gold Rush 
       California. Dana captures the cruel conditions on board 
       ship, the injustices of merchant seamen at the hands of 
       brutally unforgiving captains, and the treacherous icy 
       weather at Cape Horn. He portrays a rich cast of 
       characters (human and non-human), including the people of 
       Mexican California from whose ranches Dana would load and 
       ship cowhides - then the most active trade along the 
       California Coast. An iconic maritime memoir said to have 
       influenced Herman Melville, Two Years Before the Mast 
       remains one of America's greatest and most vivid seafaring
       tales. This recording includes Twenty-Four Years After, 
       Dana's nostalgic reflection on his famous adventure.
