30 SAILORS’ DESTINIES

“30 Destins de marins” | Victoria Jacob & Emmanuelle Halgand | Paulsen Jeunesse | 136pp | 19 x 25 cm

For girls and boys who dream of exploring the oceans.

Clarisse Crémer made a name for herself in the world of ocean racing, Madison Stewart left everything behind to live close to sharks, Damien Seguin became a Paralympic sailing champion, Anita Conti was the first woman to work as an oceanographer, Arthur Rostron saved the survivors of a shipwreck… These men and women with their sea legs have defied storms, beaten records or invented new floating devices. From the North-West Passage to the Indian Ocean, from the French coast to the Canary Islands, our 30 sailors have adopted the sea. Or did the sea choose them?
