About the Book
Wind and Tide is a book about sailing. It is perhaps the only book published in recent years that has dealt with sailing—and pure, engineless sailing craft—in such a effective manner. Not an acedemic exercise or a mere exhibition of traditionalism—Wind and Tide describes in practical, useful detail the techniques and attitude involved in sailing without engine assist.
About the Author
Jerome FitzGerald has written numberous articles on sailing and currently cruises his engineless sailboat on the West Coast of the United States.
