Jim Spurling, Fisherman

A splendid story of self-reliant American boys and of their many adventures as deep-sea fishermen. Three boys who must make money for their college education decide to earn it by a summer's fishing off the Maine coast. Jim Spurling is the leader and his uncle rents them on shares of Tarpaulin Island, twenty-five miles off the coast. It is a book that will appeal to men as well as boys.
