Picked this after our holiday visit to PEM. Thought it was about a ship and it is, but the way Ferguson gets there is thru the family history of the gentleman that had her built. Learned a lot about Salem, MA history and, US history too. Enjoyable read and will require a return visit to the PEM where many artifacts of this family reside. Recommended if you like New England history or want to know about the fascinating voyage of Cleopatra's Barge.
