Beiser, Arthur, — The Proper Yacht.

Camden, ME, International Marine Pub Co, (1978). 2nd ed. VG. "I believe that cruising under sail is an essential part of te good life, that the best way to enjoy it is to possess a. proper vessel of one's own, and that a certain amount of informed thought should be given to the choice of this vessel. The basic purpose of this book is to bring out and discuss those aspects of cruising-yacht design and construction that are relevant to someone seeking such a yacht, whether a small, handy gunkholer for coastwise cruising or a big, powerful craft for deep-sea passages to the ends of the earth." Slight edge wear.
