- Information
Description
Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea focuses upon the seamen's experience in order to illuminate larger historical issues such as the rise of capitalism, the genesis of free wage labor, and the growth of an international working class.
These epic themes were intimately bound up with the everyday hopes and fears of the common men who toiled upon the deep.
