We didn't mean to go to sea

  • Arthur Michell Ransome

0 ratings

The Swallows, visiting on the east coast of England, stand watch on a small cruising sailboat for the owner and drag anchor and cross the Channel in a gale. Wonderful detail about sailing, and the fact that it takes place 85 years ago doesn't matter.
