Summary: Cross the Ocean in Majesty
Review: This book is an absolute "Must" for any sailor or history buff. For landlubbers this is an affectionate account of the beauty and strength of the sea, the men and women who protect our shores and the surprisingly rich but (until now) overlooked history of The Eagle. The book combines a hard-core sailing voyage with lyrical history; most touching is Drumm's account of Eagle's return to present-day Germany, where the young boys recruited by Hitler's Germany - now old men - reboard their beloved ship and meet today's young crew.
