I’ve recently completed Kennedy Warne’s Soundings where he describes rowing out to a family boat with his 92-year-old father. He starts the book tracing his intergenerational connection to the sea and boats and it got me thinking….. Thinking about fathers and sons, adventures, of losses and gains, of conflict and harmony. There are some great books in this vein, and here I touch on a few; My Old Man and the Sea, One Wild Song, The Boy who Fell to Shore. Go to the Reflections section if you want to know more.
So beautifully written, and a true testament to the remarkable relationship you had with your father.
