Wind and Tide is a book about sailing. It is perhaps the only book published in recent years that has dealt with sailing—and pure, engineless sailing craft—in such a effective manner. Not an acedemic exercise or a mere exhibition of traditionalism—Wind and Tide describes in practical, useful detail the techniques and attitude involved in sailing without engine assist.
