The Topic Index helps you test your knowledge and learn more about a subject, and the extensive annotated bibliography identifies hundreds of relevant publications and Internet resources. These terms are illustrated with 190color photographs and 9 line drawings. If you are thinking about getting started on the water this book is for you. If you are already out there and dreaming about distant horizons, there is a wealth of information to help you become more competent, confident, and comfortable afloat. International emphasis is also incorporated for readers in Canada and across the pond. AUTHOR: Priscilla Travis has been sailing for more than 35 years, logging some 85,000 sea miles along the east coast of North America and in the waters of northwestern Europe.
