E.B. White - A Maine Lobsterman 1954

E.B. White spent a good part of each year in Maine, in a little town called Brooklin.  It is now the wooden boat capital of the world.  Home of WoodenBoat - the magazine and school, it is also the home of many builders who carry on the traditions - updated of course - of building beautiful boats.  Among them is the Brooklin Boatyard, founded by White's son the  naval architect Joel White, and carried on by E.B.'s grandson Steve.  W.B. was fascinated by the men of the sea - particularly the lobstermen. whose craft are the iconic image of  Maine's rockbound coast.  Here he narrates the story of one such man.
