Year: 2014 Language: english Author: Gillen, Michael Genre: History Publisher: Mc Farland & Company, Inc. Edition: First ISBN: 978-1-4766-1887-6 Format: PDF Quality: eBook Pages count: 235 Description: As per the author, “this is an oral history of the U.S. Merchant Marine in World War II and, as such, most of what you will read here will be taken directly from transcripts of the voices of the seamen themselves on tape. To retain authenticity little has been changed, except where, to reduce confusion, a word or two has been added [in brackets]. Also, to reduce repetition, words have been cut in certain instances. But the “color” of the language has been retained, whether that be a certain regional inflection, or usage of an occasional indelicate expression at which some merchant seamen are known to be particularly skilled.”.
