Isabel & the Sea by George Millar. A voyage through the Canals of France to the Mediterranean. The thing is Millar and his wife Isabel took their 30 ton ketch on this voyage from England to Greece in 1946 when Europe was a war ravaged wreck. If you've read Maquis or Horned Pigeon then this is what happened next to our war hero. Good writing and great for those of us who want to escape into another's adventure. Out of publication but you can pick up a copy on Amazon.
I’m a big fan of Millar too. You can follow that one up with his other two sailing books - A white boat from England and Oyster River (which is about his beautiful boat Amokura in the Morbihan). See here as a Brokerage boat when she was for sale through Sandeman’s
