From the enthralling tales of Sea Fever and In the Wake of Heroes, to the beautifully moving One Wild Song, there's the perfect gift for every sailor at www.bloomsbury.com
Ultimate Classic Yachts
Former Classic Boat editor Nic Compton has spent over 20 years sailing and photographing classic yachts, and this is the culmination of his decades-long passion - a stunning collection showcasing the 20 most beautiful and fascinating classic boats still sailing today.
Sea Fever
Behind every great sea story there is a real-life adventure that inspired it, and this book shines a new light on some of our best-loved maritime authors - from Robert Louis Stevenson to Jack London, Hemingway, Masefield and Conrad - reflecting the dangerous, exciting and often eccentric escapades that fuelled their writing.
One Wild Song
After his son committed suicide aged only 23, television presenter Paul Heiney decided to set sail on a voyage to Cape Horn to connect with his son's 'voice'. Not only a hugely challenging experience physically, this turned out to be an emotional journey of much more importance.
The Legend of the Sea
Gilles Martin-Raget is France's top marine photographer, with a worldwide reputation for spectacular action shots. This book is a celebration of 30 years of his stunning photography, which is instantly recognisable for its drama, perfect composition and eye-catching angles.
In the Wake of Heroes
Tom Cunliffe's name represents the gold standard of good yachting advice, and this book collects together his favourite extracts, all focusing on good seamanship in one way or another, from the classic and much-loved books that have instructed and inspired him over the decades.
Dream Cruising Destinations
Most yachtsmen dream about cruising to an exotic destination; this is the book that will turn dreamers into planners. 24 classic cruises are fully mapped, measured and costed, showing how they are perfectly possible whatever your skill level.
