Wylie BlanchetThe 50th anniversary edition of this coastal British Columbia classic, now in beautifully illustrated hardcover, will make a timeless keepsake. This is a biography and astonishing adventure story of a woman who, left a widow in 1927, packed her five children onto a 25-foot boat and cruised the coastal waters of British Columbia, summer after summer. Muriel Wylie Blanchet acted single-handedly as skipper, navigator, engineer and, of course, mother, as she saw her crew through encounters with tides, fog, storms, rapids, cougars and bears. She sharpened in her children a special interest in Haida culture and in nature itself.In this book, she left us with a sensitive and compelling account of their journeys.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52337832886560,"sku":"USED1770500375","price":39.23,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/71tViDwmS8L_8b620b32-aa4b-4112-91c9-e753aed7cf89.jpg?v=1789089362","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/the-curve-of-time-1770500375-used","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
