The Cruise of the Casco

By Elijah Kellogg

Book Overview

The Cruise of the Casco is a non-fiction book written by Elijah Kellogg. It is a narrative of Kellogg's voyage on his yacht, the Casco, from Boston to the West Indies in the late 1800s. The book is divided into chapters that detail the various ports of call, including Bermuda, the Bahamas, Cuba, and Jamaica. Kellogg describes the people, culture, and history of each location, as well as the natural beauty of the islands. He also includes anecdotes about his experiences on the yacht, such as navigating through storms and interacting with the crew. The Cruise of the Casco is a vivid and engaging account of a sailing adventure in the Caribbean, and it provides a unique perspective on the region during the late 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
