"Ah! the story of that rounding the Horn! Never in prose has the sea been so tremendously described."--Chicago Evening Post.
"Masefield's new book attracts the widest attention from those who in any degree are interested in the quality of present-day literature."--Boston Transcript.
"A remarkable poem of the sea."--San Francisco Chronicle.
"Vivid and thrillingly realistic."--Current Literature.
"A genuine sailor and a genuine poet are a rare combination; they have produced a rare poem of the sea, which has made Mr. Masefield's position in literature secure beyond the reach of caviling."--Everybody's Magazine.
"Masefield has prisoned in verse the spirit of life at sea."--N. Y. Sun.
"There is strength about everything Masefield writes that compels the feeling that he has an inward eye on which he draws to shape new films of old pictures. In these pictures is freshness combined with power, which form the keynotes of his poetry."--N. Y. Globe.
