Om denne bog
Nova Scotias maritime heritage is brought to life in the story of an adventurer who travelled the world on an epic solo voyage in a 23-foot sailboat in the 1930s. With only his dog, Togo, as a companion, Captain William Crowell overcame the challenges of an unforgiving ocean. Decades later, his grandson Frank Leaman helped him tell the story of his travels. The book explores not only his familys history, but also Nova Scotias seafaring heritage. After the Maritime Museum of the Atlantic in Halifax included Captain Crowells solo voyage as part of its permanent Days of Sail exhibit, Frank continued to gather Crowell family history and dig deeper into his grandfathers life. Together with Allison Lawlor, Frank has created a story that weaves Captain Crowells life into his familys Loyalist roots and personal reflections. The resulting book stands as one grandsons loving tribute to his grandfather -- a daring mariner who saw the end of a golden era of wooden ships and iron men.
