Roger Duncan s enthusiasm for the
Friendship sloop is brought eloquently
to life on the pages of this book. Writing
with a deep appreciation for these fine
little vessels, he carries you through the
history of the boats from their begin-
nings in Maine s Muscongus Bay to their
current rejuvenation far and wide.
Duncan gives you a thorough discus-
sion of the boats, their gear, the
builders, details of building the boats
themselves, their exploits and misfor-
tunes, and finally a most delightful
chapter on how to sail the sloops. It is
evident that this book has been a work of
joy for the author. There is a complete
list of all known Friendship sloops.
Woven throughout the story of the
Friendship sloop is a cultural thread that
binds 19th century fisherman-farmers,
builders, and modern sailors in a com-
mon appreciation for a good boat.
