Seadogs, Clowns and Gypsies is more than just a book about the remarkable lifestyle of certain Caribbean sailors. It is a Celebration of A Way of Life. The people who inhabit these salt-stained pages ("Weβre all here because weβre not all there!") have a true Lust for Living. They kiss life full on the lips, embrace each new day, welcome every fresh sensation. Yeah, theyβre louts and cads and drunkards and misfits and fools β and yet, somehow, they emerge from these yarns as noble, vital people. Many of these stories will make you laugh. A few will touch your heart. One will make you cry.The power that flows out of Fattyβs pen is awesome. You will fall in love with his shabby friends; realize why these islands are still a Sunny Place for Shady People.
