This new book, with its captivating stories and pictures, serves as a great guidebook, a unique gift and memorable keepsake...."

"This book is a much-needed guide to our waterfront treasures. Sausalito has a rich boatbuilding heritage. This guide will enhance any visitor's understanding of that heritage."
