About this title: When Daniel Robb set out to rebuild a family sailboat that had been deteriorating for years, he didn't anticipated what he was getting into. Restoring the sailboat was both an act of respect and an homage to a place and a way of life that are in jeopardy of disappearing. "Sloop" is the captivating story of Robb's education in boatbuilding, peopled by an eccentric cast of characters who are part of a changing and perhaps dying world.Simon & Schuster

"sloop is tedious in parts, and unfortunately the best parts are when he isn't writing about boat building. there is a secondary love story, that of his relationship to the landscape of cape cod, that is compelling, and a couple of boatbuilders who charm more than he does. it's just another boat book, though, and it won't scratch the travel itch either. if you want to hear about tools, however, this is a good one for you."
