''Two Years Before the Mast'' is a memoir by the American author Richard Henry Dana, Jr., published in 1840, having been written after a two-year sea voyage starting in 1834. A film adaptation under the same name was released in 1946. == Background == While an undergraduate at Harvard College, Dana had an attack of the measles which affected his vision. Thinking it might help his sight, Dana left Harvard to enlist as a common sailor on a voyage around Cape Horn on the brig ''Pilgrim''. He returned to Massachusetts two years later aboard the ''Alert'' (which left California sooner than the ''Pilgrim''). He kept a diary throughout the voyage, and, after returning, he wrote a recognized American classic, ''Two Years Before the Mast'', published in 1840.
