Summary

LEGADO DE MAR takes us into the world of the merchant navy in the first quarter of the 20th century through the experiences of a captain. This novel reflects the imprint of the spirit of seafarers, who had to endure endless campaigns on steamships, far from their families, facing a maritime adventure whose outcome was always uncertain due to the harshness of the environment and the multiple circumstances that occurred.
This captain’s baggage of sea and life, passed down to the following generations of his family saga of merchant seamen, is brought to light in his home in the Biscayan town of Algorta by his son’s decision, with the wish that it should form part of the common cultural heritage of society.
A book of sea and adventure that shows us with verisimilitude what the world of merchant ships and the sailors who crew them is like from the inside.
