Hardcover. Condition: Fair. Dust Jacket Condition: N/A. 1st Edition. First edition, first impression. 224pp. Black cloth-covered boards with gilt lettering on the spine. 8vo. Cloth is worn and brushed, gently rounded at corners and spine ends. Very slightly cocked. Heavily spotted on text block edges and lightly so on endpapers…and first and last few leaves. Not a pretty copy of this now hard to find autobiography but robust, complete and readable. An adventurer who makes Thor Heyerdahl look like an amateur describes his life at sea - a sailor during the first world war and a lieutenant in the Commandos during the second world war, he went on to retrace Darwin's voyage on HMS Beagle, spent time as a whaler, a pearl diver and performing rescue mission (nearly being murdered on a mission in the trackless Amazon Basin) and fled a Japanese prison camp and destroyed mines and Nazi installations.

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Very Good dj. First Edition. [ex-library (Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Script Department "File Copy"), marked as such only by a label and pocket on the front endpaper, and aside from that the book is only lightly worn and would grade Near Fine; the jacket shows some wear and some tiny nicks along the top…and bottom edges, with one tiny chip at the top of the rear panel]. Memoir by "one of England's great adventurers -- a man who made a business out of danger! Spanning two wars and the exciting years between, [the book] recreates his exploits -- using logbooks, scrapbooks, letters, and the captain's own astounding memory. At twenty-one, Orsborne was the youngest captain in the British Merchant Marine and ready for the extraordinary life that was to involve him, at one time or another, in pearl hunting, a safari to destroy a man-eating tiger, an escape through a crocodile-infested river, espionage for British Intelligence, and almost anything that looked like danger." (The "Girl Pat," by the way, was a small fishing trawler that Orsborne took on an unauthorized voyage across the Atlantic in 1936 -- an escapade for which he was tried and imprisoned, on the charge that he had stolen the boat. He claimed to have been on a secret undercover mission for British Naval Intelligence.).
