~~~ Maritime - Sacred to their Memory ~~~
John Jefferies (JJ) was probably the only man in the world who could name the Masters and Mariners of pre- and post- war yachting history, including The America's Cup, and his life-long maritime collection is of utmost historical value. Being the son of a Mariner who helped in crewing some of the largest yachts in the world, JJ has a lifetime's yachting experience to his credit. Although John recently passed away his book is still available via his website www.jjmaritime.co.uk . The book is a Maritime history of world-famous yachts which names all the crew members, nation-wide, who were known to JJ throughout his lifetime. It is a tribute to the memory of the Masters, Navigators and the sailor-men of England who made up the crewmembers. Pages of memories and anecdotes, moving and humorous, make compelling reading, particularly to those deeply interested in the history of yachting and seafaring. |
