Title: Most Are Not That Great
Review: There are a few good sea tales by well known authors in this book, but overall, it's a disappointment for those accustomed to adventure stories like O'Brian's Aubrey series, Tristan Jones tales and the like. Some stories end unexpectedly at a point that makes them more like a movie trailer in print. Other stories appear to be the ramblings of sailors who had no specific adventure stories in their hold at all. I found N.C. Wyeth's "Great Stories of the Sea and Ships" a far better bang for the buck.
