520 8  The sea has been an endless source of fascination, at once
       both alluring and mysterious, a place of wonder and 
       terror. The Sea Journal contains first-hand records by a 
       great range of travellers of their encounters with strange
       creatures and new lands, full of dangers and delights, 
       pleasures and perils. 0In this remarkable gathering of 
       private journals, log books, letters and diaries, we 
       follow the voyages of intrepid sailors, from the frozen 
       polar wastes to South Seas paradise islands, as they set 
       down their immediate impressions of all they saw. They 
       capture their experiences while at sea, giving us a 
       precious view of the oceans and the creatures that live in
       them as they were when they were scarcely known and right 
       up to the present day. In a series of biographical 
       portraits, we meet officers and ordinary sailors, cooks 
       and whalers, surgeons and artists, explorers and 
       adventurers. A handful of contemporary mariners provide 
       their thoughts on how art remains integral to their 
       voyaging lives. 0Often still bearing the traces of their 
       nautical past, the intriguing and enchanting sketches and 
       drawings in this book brilliantly capture the spirit of 
       the oceans and the magic of the sea.
