A graceful primer on life and how to sail through it with character,
easy grace, and personal priorities all in a row.Kirkus Reviews
Robb White knows everything there is to know about getting on the water and staying
there as long as you possibly can. While still a young boy, he built his first boat, hewn from
the tin roof of an abandoned chicken coop. In How to Build a Tin Canoe, this Southern
raconteur and self-taught, expert wooden-boat builder offers a wryly humorous journey
through a life lived on the water and the lessons learned along the way.
Robb White is the owner and proprietor of the boat-building company Robb White & Sons. A regular contributor to the publications WoodenBoat and Messing About in Boats, he is widely regarded for his boat knowledge and his working theory of life. He splits his time between southern Georgia and Florida's Apalachee Bay.

In Chancery, the second novel in John Galsworthy's epic social satire The
Forsyte Saga, follows the events of A Man of Property. After suffering the death of her
lover and abuse from her husband Soames, Irene Forsyte finally leaves her marriage for good.
Though socially disgraced by her affair, she forms a bond with the late Old Jolyon, a father of the
Forsyte clan who had grown distant from the family after reconciling with one of his outcast sons.
The young Jolyon had been disinherited after divorcing his wife to marry a penniless foreign governess.
Now, with both his father and his beloved wife dead, the younger Jolyon finds himself drawn in sympathy
to Irene, who was so dear to Old Jolyon in his final days. Their shared troubles blossom into a romance,
to the horror of Soames Forsyte.
