When the first print run of Bob Fisher’s definitive history of the America’s Cup sold out, there were disappointed sailing enthusiasts around the globe. Now, with interest mounting in the 34th America’s Cup, we’re pleased to announce a new limited print run.

 

There’s been a constant demand for this exceptional work. Those first editions were not available from bookshops or online yet soon sold out. We’ve now decided to reprint and make the books available to everyone, everywhere.

 

The mighty tomes of this two-volume set come in a cloth-bound slip case and will take pride of place on any yachtsman’s coffee table. Yet this is not just a collection of the paintings and photographs that track the cup since its origins in 1851. Author Bob Fisher has produced an work of staggering breadth and detail. He has had unique access to the archives as well as the men and women who have fought on and off the water to win sailing’s greatest prize.

 

The print run has been limited to 200 copies, and the size, quality and scarcity of this lavish sailing book is reflected in the recommended price of £250, though bookshops and online stores may offer discounts.

This is a book to treasure. It’s a wonderful possession as well as a remarkable record of the world’s most thrilling sporting competition.
