review - this delightful book is his story & abounds in salty anecdotes both at sea and in port [seems to be something of a sailor version of good old Keith Floyd] In 1936 my father-in-law, Alan Baker bought her (Thalassa) and her 1939 Fastnet Race is extensively reported in Sandy Sandison's (Thalassa's cook) book 'To Sea in Carpet Slippers' and also in Classic Boat in September 2006. Book's all good, dj has edgewear Size: 22cm.
