Captain Salt in Oz by Ruth Plumly Thompson A voyage on the famous Nonestic Ocean! What could be more thrilling than that? We-many of us-have taken trips on the prosaic Atlantic or even Pacific, but have we found a SEA FOREST with flying fish and swimming birds? Have we been pursued by a real SEA SERPENT, or had our ship transfixed by the immense ivory tusk of a NARWHAL?
