The adventures of a sailor boy : being tales of the sea and exploits of the British navy 1862

This is the cover of the 1862 book "The Adventures of a Sailor Boy: Tales of the Sea and Exploits of the British Navy," published by Darton and Hodge. The cover is printed with the title and subtitle, along with the author, "By An Old Sailor." The book was a popular genre during the Victorian era and would have likely been enjoyed by children who were fascinated by tales of adventure and seafaring. The book's size is relatively small (173mm x 121mm x 33mm), which suggests it was designed for easy reading and portability.
