This memoir recounts the author's experiences as a young Danish naval officer seeking service in the French navy during the 1820s. Written in 1877, the text reflects the formal, slightly elevated Danish style of the nineteenth century. You will encounter nautical terminology and historical vocabulary that may be challenging for intermediate learners. The sentences are often long and complex, featuring multiple clauses. This book is suitable for those interested in maritime history and nineteenth-century European travel narratives.

Questions about this book
What level of Danish do I need for this book?
The estimate is C1, based on how common the words are and how long the sentences run. It is an approximation, not a test result. With a translation under every sentence you can start one level earlier than you would with a paper copy.
Is this book really free?
Yes. The text is in the public domain and comes from Project Gutenberg, so it costs nothing. In Lingo7 you open the book and read the first page for free; a subscription unlocks the whole library, the audio and the word practice.
How does reading with a translation work?
Lingo7 shows the original sentence and, right under it, the same sentence in your language. Tap a word to see what it means, hear it, and save it for practice. The translation is made while you read, so it works for any book and for 49 languages.
How long does it take to read?
About 4 h 22 min at a native pace, spread over 37 chapters. In a foreign language plan for more: half an hour a day finishes a book of this size in a few weeks.
