""A Summer's Cruise in the Yacht Swordfish, Auxiliary Yawl"" is a travelogue written by G. L. Parmelee and first published in 1911. The book recounts Parmelee's experiences during a summer cruise aboard the yacht Swordfish, an auxiliary yawl. The cruise takes place in the waters of New England, and Parmelee describes the various ports of call, including Nantucket, Martha's Vineyard, and Newport. He also provides detailed descriptions of the yacht itself, including its construction, equipment, and crew. Throughout the book, Parmelee reflects on the pleasures and challenges of sailing, as well as the natural beauty of the New England coast. The book is a fascinating glimpse into the world of early 20th-century yachting and a celebration of the joys of summer travel.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
