About the book >.>.> Text by Jean Wright-Popescul While the splendid wooden-hulled sailing vessels that once distinguished many har- bours and coves along the Atlantic coast have now virtually disappeared the pio- neering work of marine artist J. Franklin Wright re-defines that seafaring era cap- turing the spirit of an age in maritime achievement which is one of the most in- spiring in Canadian history. The marine paintings presented in this volume make a vital contribution to our understanding of an important era in nauti- cal history that stretches from the early set- tlement of Canada to the defence of a nation in two World Wars.
