| THE BREAKING IN OF A YACHTSMAN'S WIFE by Mary Heaton Vorse with Illustrations by Reginald B. Birch Early and entertaining book by the noted feminist and social activist. We've included this title here under the Lore caption because it is just as important to learn how to manage the woman on board as it is the jib-sheets! Told with great wit and humour by a woman who can write with precision and subtlety, this book will make an ideal gift for both those gentlemen yachtsmen who have a willing and helpful mate as well as those who have one of slightly less enthusiasm. If nothing else, the woman in your life will find herself many times nodding her head in agreement as Ms. Vorse quietly and effectively does things her own way, effectively silences her husband's frenzies and arrives at a level of yacht management which he could only envy, (if he realized it that is!) Funny, telling and absorbing! HOME PAGE |
