The Log of the Skipper's
Wife by James W. Balano of Bucksport,
Maine. 1979 and appears to be a first edition. " Little
did Dorothea Moulton know when she agreed to chaperone her school
teacher girl friend and her husband to be on a sailing trip from Puerto
Rico to Boston that she would wind up as the 'skipper's wife'.
She did and for the next two decades she spent a large part of her
married life aboard her husband's various ships sailing around the
world, visiting mysterious and glamorous ports, and raising a family.
At times earthy, always interesting, this is Dorothea Moulton Balano's
eyewitness account of life aboard some of the last of the vaunted Maine
windjammers". Good condition.
