Intended as an account of «the life of a common sailor at sea as it really is», «Two Years Before the Mast» details a voyage from Boston to San Francisco to trade goods from the east for cow hides. «Two Years Before the Mast» is a classic depiction of maritime life in the 19th century. Included in this edition is the appendix, «Twenty-Four Years After» written and added by the author in 1869.
