Giles, I share your enjoyment of George Millar's books. I read Isabel of the Sea and A White Boat from England last year as well as Maquis and Horned Pigeon.
Just finished Slade House by David Mitchell, having just reread Cloud Atlas.
Tonight I started North-West Passage by Willy de Roos - preparation, I hope, for another delivery trip on Northabout this year, this time via Ireland, the Faeroes, Iceland to Greenland.
Next on the list are Bill Tilman's Seven Mountain/Travel books.
Should keep me busy!
