Been trudging along in Master and Commander for a while and decided to take small break to learn all these nautical terms. Hopefully I can then comprehend what exactly is going on but otherwise an excellent read.
Other books I am reading simultaneously:
An Experiment in Criticism – C.S. Lewis
Mere Christianity – C.S. Lewis
Fellowship of the Ring – J.R.R. Tolkien
Tao Te Ching – Lao Tzu
A History of Korea – Michael Seth
I would like to finish half of them plus Soccernomics by November.
