Sailor's Language: A Collection of Sea Terms and Their Definitions (1883) is a book compiled by William Clark Russell, a British novelist and journalist who spent much of his life at sea. The book is a comprehensive guide to the language used by sailors, including nautical terms, slang, and idioms. It is divided into sections covering various aspects of life on board a ship, such as rigging, navigation, and seamanship. Each entry provides a clear and concise definition of the term, as well as its origin and usage. The book also includes illustrations and diagrams to help readers understand the various parts of a ship and how they are used. Sailor's Language is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of seafaring or the language of sailors.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
