Octavo (19.75cm); black cloth, with titles stamped in gilt on spine, and decorative elements embossed to front cover; burgundy topstain; dustjacket; [viii],372,[4]pp. Tiny crinkle at crown, with a touch of offset from jacket flaps onto endpapers, else Near Fine.

Traven's own translation of his first novel, which was translated from the German by Eric Sutton for the UK edition published by Chatto & Windus. A novel set in the aftermath of World War I, centered around a group of merchant seamen who lack citizenship, money, and papers; it is in equal part an adventure novel, and a scathing indictment of abusive labor practices and authority.
