In 1870, a young woman from Nova Scotia took charge of a 144-foot merchant square-rigged vessel on a voyage from New Orleans to Liverpool England, a distance of over 5000 miles, when the captain (Bessie's father) and First Mate fell ill with Smallpox. Stories of wooden craft of this size, travelling the seven seas, with masts and rigging that scrape the clouds of a stormy sky, are many. But, when an 19th century under-crewed, storm-wracked ship, is brought safely home by a woman skipper, it is a tale for the ages. Sister Sailor: The Remarkable Journey of Bessie Hall, an accessible digital graphic novel with accompanying notes (epub and pdf) brings you on board the journey of this sailor, who ably stepped forward to take the helm, to navigate and to stay the course until all were safely home.
