Cruises in Small Yachts - And a Continuation, Entitled More Cruises

This vintage book is a collection of authentic yacht sailing anecdotes. Complete with humorous sketches and written in a style that reflects the whole-hearted enthusiasm of the author, "Cruises In Small Yachts" constitutes a must-read for sailing enthusiasts, and would make for a fantastic addition to collections of allied literature. Contents include: "Projected Cruise--Our Ship--Dimensions--Provisioning--The Crew--Erith Hard--Toggery", Water--Hauling Off--An Addition to Crew--Under Way--Thames Barges--From Erith to Rarnsgate to Dover--The Breaker", "Dover to Sloe--Flushing--The Roompot--Keeten Mastgat--Hallevoetsluis--Rotterdam", etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on sailing. "Cruises In Small Yachts" was first published in 1926.
