Carry On, Mr. Bowditch

Paperback

Nathaniel Bowditch grew up in a sailor’s world—Salem in the early days, when tall-masted ships from foreign ports crowded the wharves. But Nat didn’t promise to have the makings of a sailor; he was just too small, physically. However, Nat’s long hours of study and observation stunned the sailing community and made him a New England hero!
