Autor: Jones, Tristan
Rok: 1924-1995 Arthur Jones, pen name Tristan Jones (Liverpool, 8 May 1929 – 21 June 1995) was an English author and mariner who wrote numerous books and articles, many in the first person, about sailing. His stories tended to be a combination of both fact and fiction in the tradition of Welsh story tellers and it has often been difficult to tell these apart. Indeed, he was a consummate story-teller, but as far as his account of his naval service in WWII in particulargoes, any old salt would have regarded him, at best, as a 'rum gagger'. rum gagger n. [late 18C-mid-19C] (UK Und.) a confidence trickster who raises money on the basis of telling fraudulent tales of supposed suffering at sea. |
