Hardbound. Condición: Good. 1st Australian Edition. Description: Includes four double sided black and white photo plates. The publisher's blurb reads: ''How is it that a soldier and his mountain climber wife became so much at home on the sea? This book starts off where the Smeetons knew practically nothing of seamanship, and tells how the family acquired their knowledge by numerous adventures. At the same time Miles Smeeton's vivid and witty style introduces to the reader so many intriguing characters and places encountered on their voyage from England across the Atlantic, through the Panama Canal to the Galapagos to Vancouver, to Hawaii, the South Sea Islands, New Zealand and Australia. The author has a genius for mixing with people; his book is not too technical for non-yachting readers as it is high in human and travel interest.''
