Put Him in the Longboat by Doug Edwards revives the forgotten maritime adventures of Edward Main Chaffers, a 19th-century sailor whose logbooks shaped early Pacific exploration. This slim 80-page biography blends transport history with personal drama, perfect for readers who relish true nautical tales.
The 1989 GP Books paperback arrives vintage-illustrated and warmly inscribed by the author, adding collector charm. Though the cover carries honest shelf wear, the tight binding and crisp, unmarked pages promise many more safe voyages across a smoke-free shelf.
A personalised gift note from Edwards enhances its gift-giving appeal, making this compact slice of naval history a thoughtful present for lovers of biographies, exploration chronicles, and classic seafaring lore.
