ABOUT:
An Account of a Voyage in the Sloop 'Serica.'
This voyage from Lymington to the Riviera should not be noteworthy, but this is a world recovering from war, and the author a man 'incapable of writing a dull sentence'. As Peter Bruce states in his Introduction, "One soon becomes captivated, as one always is, by George's unusually acute powers of observation and his ability to ascertain and record exactly what was going on at every stop - George Millar's accounts of his adventures are always like a box of jewels each giving dazzling pleasure and glorious entertainment.
Illustrated with monochrome images, cross section drawings and maps.
