Carry On, Mr. Bowditch

Atmospheric sea tale from a true story!

Young Nat Bowditch is precocious, driven, and a bit melancholy, making him the perfect narrator to immerse you in his tale of perseverance and sailing ships from a just barely post-revolution America. Settle in and let Nat’s unique way of seeing the world transport you! This book won a Newbery Award and is based on the real sailor, mathematician, and innovator, Nathaniel Bowditch.
