    About this ebook

    "I DECLARE this is almost like coming into another world, isn't it?"
    "Yes, and I, for one, am glad to get back. I like a good horse, and no one enjoys a few days' shooting and fishing better than I do; but when I get tired of the saddle and the woods, I like to see the blue water and feel the solid planks of a yacht's deck under my feet once more. We had a good time though, in spite of all our adventures and mishaps."

      The Enduring Search For Endurance

      Mar 2, 2022

      I AM sitting at my desk in a Suffolk manor house that is a collage of dates: 1585, 1640, 1920. My study was once the housekeeper’s bedroom. Today, Wyken has no live-in housekeeper and the occupant who writes this was not to the manor born. All the pl

      Time Out

      Aug 30, 2019

      E.F Knight’s Cruise of the Alerte is one of those sailing books that has all the classic ingredients for a ripping yarn. A cruise in a small boat to an exotic location, a few rows along the way and a fruitless hunt for treasure at the end of it. Knig

      When I Find Hidden Gems, I Destroy Them

      Jul 28, 2021

      Three people may keep a secret if two of them are dead, said Benjamin Franklin. The sickening truth about travel writers is that they reveal secret locations in exchange for a free trip. It’s a Faustian pact and I must admit I bear some guilt in this
