The Blue Hill Library and Blue Hill Books will present an author talk with W.H. 'Bill' Bunting on Wednesday, July 29 at 7:00 p.m. for his new book Captain Drew's World: Dispatches from the Age of Global Sail. Maritime historian and editor W. H. Bunting has compiled the writings of Captain John Drew, 1834-1890 (a native of Hallowell Maine) and gathered them in his new book with enlightening annotation. Captain Drew’s World: Dispatches from the Age of Global Sail provides readers a vivid window onto the great age of sail from both coasts of the United States to the Caribbean, Europe, Southeast Asia, Australia, and beyond. W. H. Bunting is an award-winning maritime historian and author, whose books include Portrait of a Port: Boston 1852-1914; Sea Struck; Live Yankees: The Sewalls and Their Ships; and A Day’s Work, in two volumes.
