Sea Struck brings alive the final decades of square-rigged sail through the accounts of voyages made on three ships by three young men from Massachusetts. There is plenty of adventure here- storms, men overboard, discipline that bordered on brutality, and exotic ports. There is also a fascinating immersion in the lore of the sea and sail and the global web of connections in the New England maritime community.
