The Art and Science of Sails

The Art and Science of Sails

“A fascinating look at the science and history that has led us to today's highly technical world of sailmaking. The book does a wonderful job of explaining the physics behind both trimming of sails and state-of-the-art sailmaking.” – Bora Gulari, two-time Moth World Champion and U.S. Sailing Rolex Yachtsman of the Year.

“Tom Whidden and Michael Levitt’s book is a clear, reliable guide to getting the most out of your sails, an essential component to good seamanship whether you’re cruising or racing.” —John Rousmaniere, author, The Annapolis Book of Seamanship.

The women on the posters were the faces of New York.

The women were Irish, Italian, Jewish, and Latina. In 1948, Thelma Porter became the first black Miss Subways—a landmark event.
