About The Death Ship

The Death Ship tells the story of an American sailor, stateless and penniless because he has lost his passport, who is harassed by police and hounded across Europe until he finds an 'illegal' job shoveling coal in the hold of a steamer bound for destruction. The Death Ship is the first of B. Traven's politically charged novels about life among the downtrodden, which have sold more than thirty million copies in thirty-six languages. Praise for The Death Ship: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A damn good high seas adventure novel with all the trimmings. This one lived up to expectations. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ It's a funny first-person yarn by a happy-go-unlucky societal misfit that's reminiscent of Mark Twain. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ One of these books you read once and never forget. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ When you see B. Traven on the spine of a book, just pick it up... hurry home with it.
