The popular image of the British sailor of this time is of a press-ganged wretch living off weevil-infested food, motivated only by prize money and facing constant hazards aboard a floating hell, where discipline was maintained by the lash. The extent to which this enduring image accords with reality is revealed here.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eReference Book | Book has slight yellowing\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Miakarts Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49682838192368,"sku":"NEW1841769061","price":24.62,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/ethereallybeautiful.com\/products\/nelsons-sailors-warrior-100","provider":"Ethereally Beautiful","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
