Sailing Liberty: The First Mate’s Log: From Seattle to Alaska and Back Again

by Marjorie Boice, David Boice, Manor Collective

This is not only a true story about sailing from Seattle to Alaska and back again but a testimony to a love story (and marriage) that spans almost 70 years. The Boices dedicate this book to all the sailors and adventurers out there who see beyond the “what ifs” and embrace the “why nots.” David Boice wrote the "odes" and the history of their long romance and family life together to accompany the story that Marjorie penned and illustrated. The illustrated book covers the complete round trip on their first partnership sailing from Seattle to Alaska and back again on their new 29’ sailing vessel, “Liberty.” . This is a book for anyone who loves romances or loves sailing or traveling adventure or all of the above. Marjorie's lovely watercolour maps add not only beauty but clear guidance about their entire journey. This would be a great gift for anyone who loves the Northwest, sailing, traveling, or just inspirational reading! Enjoy! Sailing Liberty is the first book by both Marjorie and David Boice published by Manor Publishing Collective (booksbyseniors.org or manorcollective.com). Marjorie Boice’s first solo effort from Manor Publishing Collective was The Mystery of Long The Diary of Mary Mallet. We're sure you'll enjoy both works for different reasons.
