Excerpt from The Flying Cloud: A Story of the Sea It was magical, wonderful, past all whooping, to be young and to be alive, and to be on the deck of a great ship in a gale. Consider, you who have been to sea, and have indeed seen things, and known, maybe, many Hurricanes and Cyclones and Typhoons, and the Roaring Forties, and running down the Easting, and all the seven and seventeen seas of this strange round world of sea (wherein there is a little inconsiderable land); consider, I say, what it was to face your first big gale, if in your boy's heart there were but half the natural courage of a boy who loved the sea ignorantly and all its mighty works! Magic is no word for it; there are no words. To paint it one asks those who know to come and bring their hearts' knew.

Flying Cloud is the riveting and thoroughly researched tale of a truly unforgettable sea voyage during the days of the California gold rush. In 1851, navigator Eleanor Creesy set sail on the maiden voyage of the clipper ship Flying Cloud, traveling from New York to San Francisco in only 89 days. This swift passage set a world record that went unbroken for more than a century. Upon arrival in San Francisco, Flying Cloud became an enduring symbol of a young nation's daring frontier spirit. Illustrated with original maps and charts as well as historical photographs, Shaw's compelling narrative captures the drama of this thrilling adventure. In a position almost unheard of for a woman in the mid-19th century, Eleanor Creesy served as the ship's navigator. With only the sun, planets, and stars to guide her, she brought Flying Cloud safely around Cape Horn at the height of a winter blizzard, faced storms, dodged shoals, and found her way through calms to make the swift passage possible. Along with her husband, Josiah, the ship's captain, she sailed the mighty 3-masted clipper through 16,000 miles of the fiercest, most unpredictable oceans in the world. Shaw vividly recreates 19th-century seafaring conditions and customs, for both the crew and the passengers who entrusted their fate to an untested ship. Including excerpts from letters and diaries of passengers, Shaw recounts Flying Cloud's victory in the face of adversity—including sabotage, insubordination, and severe damage to the clipper's mainmast that might have sunk her with all hands lost. But the ship triumphed and would ultimately sail the world. Flying Cloud brings to life, for the first time, the glory of one of America's most important seafaring tales and one woman's incredible achievements.
