In the Misty Seas. A Story of the Sealers of Behring Strait
Harold Bindloss
When your country is small and poor, people have two choices. Some decide to stay and raise it from poverty, while others go to seafaring. So most New Zealanders did. So said one of the inhabitants of this country: Our country is a kind of difficult country, and most of our people go to sea from time to time when they cannot achieve more. In the same way, our main characters went to seafaring, where there were many prizes on their way.

Frederick Schiller Faust (1892-1944) was an American author known primarily for his thoughtful and literary Westerns under the pen name Max Brand.

But, first of all, this is connected with several short stories of Kipling about three military men in the army, Mulvani, Lirida and Other.
