The Autobiography Of A Man-O-War's Bell: A Tale Of The Sea (1875) - Tapa dura

This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the original. Due to its age, it may contain imperfections such as marks, notations, marginalia and flawed pages. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions that are true to the original work.

In this category of bells, I do not allude to such humble productions of human ingenuity as the household implements which lie in rows in the basement floors of all modern houses; though, doubtless, were the tongues of many such to give utterance to their feelings, they could tell some unpleasant truths of the opinions of their betters, freely ventilated by the servant-kind, who live and move and have their being in the kitchen, and the regions that thereunto adjacent lie.
