Description
This is a book about the joys and “hard-I ships” of sailing in little dinghies and big, ocean-going racers. It is addressed to everyone who has ever been, or dreamt of being, the skipper of his own sailboat.
Mr. Stanford treats sailing as a way of life, as well as a delightful hobby. He explores that sixth sense called “the sailing instinct” and shows why some people are able to acquire it while others never can.
He puts man in his proper (and humble) place in relation to the ship and the sea and the wind.
Hardback 1943
