Half a century ago this book first saw the lightas pickups from magazine articles, as a sort of scrapbook, as the beginning of a course in boat operation. It has grown, changed, been revised, been re-edited and rewritten. In the same way that the skills of the sailor grow by experience, the pages of "Piloting, Seamanship and Small Boat Handling" have grown from the experiences of the readers, the practical lore of the countless teachers who have used the book as a text, and the expertise of the various writers and contributing editors who have been a part of it.
