A compendium of a young widow's summer travels among the islands and fjords of British Columbia with her five small children. The family lived and travelled on a small motor launch getting to know that remarkable coast and it's cast of characters starting in 1927. Her enchanting account has become a treasured local classic in B.C.
This was an utterly charming, poignant, and thrilling book by turns. I couldn't put it down, and wish to return to its lush inlets and snarled mountains someday soon.
