The thrilling true story of a small yacht's daring voyage across the Atlantic

On a cold, blustery, late November day in 1920, a little black 45-foot yacht slowly beat her way through the Narrows against an ebbing tide and a raw nor'wester and tied up at St. George, Staten Island. To the casual observer there was nothing unusual about the event, except possibly the lateness of the season, but to the practiced eye there were signs that spelled something more than a post-season run to the fishing banks. Her storm trysail, her tattered ensign, her decks and rail scoured white, the lifelines strung between her shrouds--all were marks that told of a battle with strong winds and heavy seas. She was the Typhoon, thirty-two days from the Azores, and in her short career since her launching in July, she had completed a cruise of seven thousand-odd miles that had taken her across the North Atlantic and back again.
