ON AND OFF SOUNDINGS

By

Publisher: Van Nostrand

High standard of specialized interest appeal in this companion volume to the successful Just Cruising, again a selection of the best from the magazine Yachting There are a good many stories with the elements of adventure and misadventure. There are grand examples of top drawer reporting on races (more on the famous Bermuda race than the space seems to warrant); one on whaling; one on square riggers. Some motor boat material, and various types of cruising in small yachts and large. The names are familiar ones to the sailing fraternity- and a very definite fraternity it is, in interest, in background experience, in lingo. They will love this.
