An updated and expanded edition to celebrate the 150th anniversary of this iconic
ship. The narrative spans her construction at Dumbarton in 1869; her famous tea voyages
as well as those with other cargoes; her career under a Portuguese flag; her subsequent
return to the Thames, Greenwich; and the dramatic fire, painstaking restoration and
glorious reopening in April 2012. The book has been developed from the outset with
the Cutty Sark Trust and takes the form of a chronological career narrative but also
presents detailed features on crew accounts, log entries, pieces on seamanship, ports
and cargoes and broader tall ship culture as well as an opportunity to focus on artifacts
and the fittings of the ship.This unique opportunity allows the first publication
of specially commissioned photography created as part of, and subsequent to, the clipper's
restoration as well as the findings of resulting research
