 Dive into the enchanting world of Robert C. Leslie (1826-1901), an artist and writer whose deep-seated passion for the sea blossomed during the Great Age of Sail, long before steamships transformed maritime travel. In this captivating narrative, Leslie reflects on his journey of love for the ocean, navigating from wave to wave and boat to boat. He recalls the early days of single-handed small boat sailing, a time when many amateurs hesitated to venture out alone. When I first began boating in the early forties [1840s], what is now called single-handed cruising was almost unknown among amateurs....people had a vague dread of it. Yet, as Leslie notes, that apprehension has faded, as countless enthusiasts, including women, now feel more at home in sailing boats than on horseback or bicycles. Journey back to the mid-19th century, when quaint Sidmouth was a quiet retreat, untouched by the rush of modernity, and explore a Lost Age through Leslies eyes.
