THE LOG OF A SEA-WAIF. Being Recollections of the First Four Years of my Sea Life.
WORLD.—'In "The Log of a Sea-Waif," Mr. Bullen has surpassed all his previous efforts. We have read many stories of sea life, but do not remember to have been so fascinated and enthralled by any of them as by this masterly presentation of the humours, hardships, and minor tragedies of life in the forecastle.'
TIMES.—'Full of thrilling adventure, admirably told.... We must leave Mr. Bullen's touching story of his early struggles and adventures to speak for itself. His descriptive powers are great, his literary imagination is vivid, and he finds abundant opportunities for the display of both.'
REVIEW OF REVIEWS.—'To most of us "The Log of a Sea-Waif" will come almost as a revelation. We know of no other book, with perhaps the sole exception of "Two Years before the Mast," which can compare for a moment with Mr. Bullen's work.'
LITERATURE.—'The book is one of uncommon interest. Mr. Bullen has the art of the narrator, and a power of putting a scene vividly before the reader, with occasionally a masterly vigour of description. It is well worth buying; the stamp of reality is impressed upon every page.'
BOOKMAN.—'A mine of information and of interest for those who concern themselves with seafaring folk.... A brave and inspiriting story.'
PALL MALL GAZETTE.—'Those who love the sea, and have a soft spot in their hearts for the men who make their living upon it, will heartily enjoy Mr. Bullen's book, as we have done.'
