Toronto: Ryerson Press, 1961. 197 pp, 8vo (8 5/8" H). "In the days of sail the sailor met his God upon the sea, for it was here that he was most aware of Him as Ruler of the elements. Towards this God he showed respect. But religion was a limited force for those whose lives were hardend by discomfort, exposure to cold and wet, wretched food, medical neglect and harsh discipline. Chaplains with insight came to understand the Navy's own moral code and used it to build upon. On some ships they were welcomed. On others they had to overcome indifference and, sometimes, open hostility. Waldo Smith recaptures here the flavour of this rugged bygone era." Cigarette odour, moderate browning to edges of text block, three tiny stains on top of text block, very light edge wear, light browning on endpapers, light browning on top/bottom edges of boards and on spine, minor wrinkling at top of spine. Dust jacket has old price sticker on front panel, light browning - mainly on spine and flap-folds, several small pieces missing at edges, a few small tears archivally taped, faint small water stain at bottom inside edge of front panel.. First Edition. Hard Cover. Good+/Good-.
