Most Fortunate Ship
Sorry, Mr. Martin. I just couldn't summon as much interest in the subject as you could. Being a civilian and a landlubber, I didn't understand, and you didn't explain, half of what you wrote about, and after the umpteenth visit to Wikipedia to find out what the whatchamacallit does and what happens when the whatzit falls off, I gave up. I'm sure for the right party this is a treasure of detail but not for me. Abandoned ship, and this book.
