This award-winning book is for those interested in adventure, travel and the exploration of Canada's vast eastern seaboard and Great Lakes. Each chapter is a first-hand account of exciting and challenging voyages aboard a 41-foot sailboat named Bagatelle. Photos, trip summary tables and beautifully hand-drawn charts are available throughout the book. Take a trip along the rugged coastline of the Gaspé peninsula, marvel as you journey around Québec City, Magdalen Islands, Halifax and the southern coast of Nova Scotia. Witness the awesome power of wind and wave as Bagatelle makes her way in the Gulf of St Lawrence, her crew at the mercy of the elements. Prepare yourself for the adventure of a lifetime!

A small fossil-hunting expedition in the desert of central Australia discovers live colonies of six-foot-tall ants and giant mantises. Gripping adventure, reminiscent of tales by H. G. Wells and Jules Verne.
