Adventure on the High Sea!
A Family’s Sailing Voyage Across the Atlantic

by Susan Barry Blair
Publisher: Xlibris
ISBN: 1425710646
Available: Ingram, Amazon, Borders, and all other usual retail booksellers

Adventure on the High Sea! is a true story for young readers ages 8 to 13 but should also appeal to a parent´s sense of adventure.

A young girl and her family set out for the adventure opportunity of a lifetime. It's an exciting story about a family's life onboard a 38-foot sailboat and their many experiences along the way.

They embark on a year-long voyage beginning in England with proposed stops in Spain, the Canary Islands, the Caribbean and Bermuda. Nothing ever goes as planned and their journey detours to Africa and later to America where they eventually settled.
