Follow on Google News | New Street Authors to Headline Port Townsend Wooden Boat FestivalSteven Callahan and Lin & Larry Pardey, authors of bestselling books published by New Street Nautical Audio and New Street Communications, to be featured presenters at the world's premier wooden boat gathering.
Callahan's much-praised Capsized: Jim Nalepka's Epic 119-Day Survival Voyage Aboard the Rose-Noelle, is available from New Street in paper, digital and audio editions. Callahan's is also author of the memoir Adrift: Seventy-Six Days Lost at Sea (Houghton Mifflin, 1986) which became a New York Times bestseller, has been translated into 16 languages, and remains in print some 28 years after its initial publication. Callahan has lately been an on-site consultant for numerous nautically-related feature films, including Life of Pi and Ron Howard's forthcoming dramatization of Nathaniel Philbrick's In the Heart of the Sea. Lin and Larry Pardey are among America's (and the world's) most knowledgeable and recognized cruising sailors. They are known as "America's first couple of cruising." Together, Lin and Larry have sailed over 200,000 miles, including two circumnavigations east to west and west to east aboard self-built, wooden, engine-free cutters under 30 feet. Authors of a dozen books, countless magazine articles, and co-creators of five cruising documentaries, Lin and Larry have shared their sailing experiences with tens of thousands around the globe prompting many to take up the sport and live the dream of the cruising lifestyle. New Street Nautical publishes the audio edition of Lin and Larry's classic Cruising in Seraffyn and currently has several of their other books - including Seraffyn's European Adventure, Seraffyn's Mediterranean Adventure, Seraffyn's Oriental Adventure, and Bull Canyon - in production for audio publication. Lin and Larry are the subjects of Herb McCormick's critically-acclaimed As Long As It's Fun: The Epic Voyages and Extraordinary Times of Lin and Larry Pardey, also available as an audio edition from New Street and, like the books by the Pardeys, published in digital and paper editions by Paradise Cay Publishing.
