Until He Died

Until He Died is a well researched, historical novel based on the American coastal packet schooners of the 1870's. Not a dull, scholarly tome, this book is about the people from those days of hard working sail. A part of our heritage, these proud men sailed down the wind to make their livelihood, leaving wives and families to wait . . . sometimes forever. Waves of tense drama, humor, love and excitement, all tinged with that peculiar sadness found in people of the sea. This epic tale is played out against the natural beauty of a Cape Cod which too has been lost to the years.
