Wind In My Wings

For everyone who has gone to sea, or anyone who merely dreams of it from the safety of an armchair, sailing along with this very brave and passionate woman on her remembered voyages will be a delightful experience.

It is not often that one can read reflections from the lower deck of a modern sailing vessel. In Wind in My Wings, Fran Taylor captures the essence of life aboard 20th-century sailing vessels. In particular, her account of life and work on board the replica of James Cook’s Endeavour when sailing as a seaman crew member gives us an insight into what only 1500 landlubbers worldwide have had the luck to experience.
