After her husband died in 1926 from a suspected drowning, Capi Blanchet spent every summer cruising BCs west coast with her five children and their dog in the familys 25-foot boat. The Curve of Time is the book Capi wrote chronicling these adventures, and it remains a bestseller and a classic in the annals of nautical literature. But little is known about the rest of her life. Cathy Converse found herself asking: who was this skipper, this mother, this writer? In this biography, Converse offers insiders recollections of this enigmatic woman, along with family photos and updated information about the villages, inlets and islands described in The Curve of Time. Essential reading for anyone who has ever been captivated by the book, the West Coast or Capi herself.
