“The book deals with all aspects of the restoration, with both triumphs and setbacks recorded. This volume is a fitting tribute to mark the triumphant conclusion to a great project begun just over 30 years ago. For anyone interested in endeavour and perseverance in maritime affairs - who just likes sailing vessels, this book is a ‘must buy’”.
Bob Fildes Editor Australian Sea Heritage magazine

“The photographic record is outstanding and spans almost a century of the ship’s life recording her lows and highs and concludes with wonderful shots of her alive and vital, at sea under sail again...
For those who love ships The James Craig Story must have a place in their library”.
Joseph ‘Lew’ Lewis-Hughes OBE Hon Librarian, Sydney Heritage Fleet

“The collection of photos of the barque in her working years is varied and marvellous. The associated original documents illustrate just how much research went on behind the more public hard work on the fabric itself. In landscape format, this is a beautifully presented souvenir of Australia’s veteran square-rigger.”
