Synopsis "Clipper Ships - Wool and Wealth"
Clipper ships were used to carry passengers and goods, migrants to the USA or between coasts and to Australia, notably for the wool trade, and wheat and other goods back to the UK. In July 1883, Cutty Sark was one of the fastest wool carriers, beating every ship sailing by 25 days to over a month on the UK to Australia route. These clippers caught the Roaring Forties trade winds and fought some of the most violent gales and seas on the planet, coming into frequent contact with icebergs around Cape Horn. This book, "Clipper Ships - Wool And Wealth" chronicles the harrowing legends of sailing at its very best and worst, with the British, American and Australian clippers that made history. Read along and follow the adventures of famous clipper ships in all their glory!
