Sketches Of A Yachting Cruise (1889) is a travelogue written by Ernest Gambier Parry about his experiences on a yachting cruise. The book is a collection of sketches and observations of the places he visited, the people he met, and the adventures he had while sailing around the Mediterranean. The author takes the reader on a journey through the waters of the Mediterranean, stopping at various ports and islands along the way. He describes the local customs, foods, and cultures of the different regions he visits, from the bustling cities of Italy to the quiet fishing villages of Greece. Parry also shares his thoughts on the joys and challenges of yachting, from the thrill of sailing in open waters to the difficulties of navigating through narrow channels and avoiding hazards. He provides insights into the life of a yachtsman, including the camaraderie and sense of adventure that comes with being part of a crew.Overall, Sketches Of A Yachting Cruise is a vivid and engaging account of a journey through the Mediterranean, written by an experienced yachtsman with a keen eye for detail and a passion for adventure.
