The Spaulding Marine Center will host guest speaker, Charles J. Doane, to speak about the making of his latest book The Boy Who Fell to Shore: The Life and Mysterious Disappearance of Thomas Thor Tangvald.

“THE BOY WHO FELL TO SHORE is an insider’s account of the Tangvald legend. Charles J. Doane—an accomplished bluewater sailor and longtime sailing journalist—tracks omas and his father Peter (a renowned but controversial sailor and author) across thousands of ocean miles through intimate interviews, personal correspondence, documentary research, and rst-hand experience of the tropical anchorages and passage routes they frequented. is biography is by turns inspiring, terrifying, beautiful, and infuriating as Doane deftly explores the great cost of living freely at the whim of wind and water.” - from the back cover
