Seller's Description:
New in New jacket. No Flaws or Blemishes; Gift Quality. 8vo; 9.5 inches tall; 274 pages with an appendix and index. Fully illustrated throughout. An intimate portrait of the courageous wives of sailing ship captains in the last century, told for the first time in their own words, through journals and letters. Maritime historian Joan Druett explores the wildly colorful, dangerous, and most of all romantic world of seafaring women who left friends and families behind to join their husbands at sea. On board a "hen frigate" (any ship with the captain's wife aboard), a woman grappled with loneliness and boredom as she strove to create a home on a wind-driven freighter at sea. A deft historical interpreter, Druett interweaves the first-person accounts of these remarkable wives and daughters with the lyrical narrative of a sea journey.
