ISBN: 0437765032
Illustrator: Peter Spier Publisher: World's Work Ltd (The Mother Goose Library) Published Date: 1969 Media: Hardback Price: £24.99 "Set to the lively accompaniment of sea chanties and salt water rhymes, this is a colourful panorama of life afloat - complete with storms at sea and gaiety ashore, of tall ships under sail, bustling docks, sad farewells and joyous homecomings, and for Charlie, the young bosun, a pretty girl in every port!
The third volume of The Mother Goose Library charts the maiden voyage of a typical early 19th century sailing vessel. From the shipyards of Honfleur, La Jeune Francaise goes to New York City and back again to France by way of Dartmouth, and no one but Peter Spier could have pictured the trip with such imaginative zest combined with so much historically accurate detail of places and ships."
