Synopsis "The Schooner That Came Home: The Final Voyage of the C. A. Thayer"

The Schooner That Came Home: The Final Voyage Of The C. A. Thayer by Harlan Trott is a non-fiction book that tells the story of the last voyage of the C. A. Thayer, a historic sailing vessel that was used for transporting lumber along the Pacific coast. The book chronicles the journey of the ship from San Francisco to Seattle, which was made in 1950, shortly after the end of World War II.The author provides a detailed account of the history of the C. A. Thayer, including its construction, its role in the lumber industry, and its eventual decline. He also describes the challenges faced by the crew during the final voyage, including rough seas, mechanical problems, and the need to navigate through treacherous waters.Throughout the book, Trott provides insights into the lives of the sailors who worked on the C. A. Thayer, including their daily routines, their relationships with one another, and the dangers they faced while at sea. He also explores the cultural significance of the ship, both as a symbol of the lumber industry and as a reminder of the role that sailing vessels played in the development of the Pacific coast.Overall, The Schooner That Came Home is a fascinating and engaging book that provides a unique perspective on the history of the Pacific coast and the lives of those who worked on the C. A. Thayer. It is a must-read for anyone interested in maritime history, the lumber industry, or the culture of the Pacific coast.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
