board to Miami then southeast to Hispaniola, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands then through the Windward and the Leeward Islands- 60 ports in all. The story- told chiefly by the wife, is warm lively reporting of places and people, with bits of history, with exploration and fishing excursions, of experiences with customs officials and entry requirements; leisurely adventure and delightful humor -- required reading for anyone contemplating sailing in the trade winds. The husband contributes a salty introduction which covers special details on boat and cruise; an appendix with specific information on requirements at each port, factual details, and so on; 15 halftones, 5 charts.
