About this audiobook

Three newspapermen share a small tramp steamer on a slow voyage from Cape Town to England. One is American, one is a burly Dutch editor, and one is the narrator. They are bored and curious, and then the sea shows them something none of them can explain. Rudyard Kipling's tall tale of newspapermen, from his collection Many Inventions, opens with a poem about the Pacific. Read by Paul Landergan in thirty-eight minutes.
