Afloat / Guy de Maupassant ; translated from the French and with an introduction by Marlo Johnston ; with a selection of drawings by E. Riou.

"Afloat is the story of Maupassant's voyage around the Mediterranean coast aboard his yacht, the Bel-Ami. It is not only the record of a voyage, but a portrait of life at sea and of French provincial life on the land.... This edition includes previously unpublished translations of three articles by Maupassant."--Dust jacket.
