Reseña del libro "Two Years Before the Mast (en Inglés)"

Two Years Before the Mast chronicles the two-year sea voyage of Richard Henry Dana Jr., a Harvard student who signed onto the merchant brig Pilgrim as an ordinary sailor in 1834. He sailed from Boston to South America and around Cape Horn to California. The Pilgrim traded goods from the United States for the Mexican-era California missions' and ranchos' cow hides. They traded at the ports in San Diego Bay, San Pedro Bay, Santa Barbara Channel, Monterey Bay, and San Francisco Bay. Dana's vivid, enthralling account describes the sometimes harrowing experiences of the common sailor while offering empathetic, astute insights into the cultures and customs of the peoples he encountered. This Warbler Classics edition is based on the 1909 Macmillan publication of the book, which includes extensive annotations and contributions by Homer Eaton Keyes that provide valuable context and explanations of nautical terms. Also included is a brief history of the brig Pilgrim.
