Quotation from: Elsinore

Written by: Jack London


And yet it is not like mutiny--not like the conventional mutiny I
absorbed as a boy, and which has become classic in the literature of
the sea. There is no hand-to-hand fighting, no crash of cannon and
flash of cutlass, no sailors drinking grog, no lighted matches held
over open powder-magazines. Heavens!--there isn't a single cutlass
nor a powder-magazine on board. And as for grog, not a man has had a
drink since Baltimore.
