Ships to stir the seafaring heart -- The zenith of the age of sail -- A golden lure for clipper builders -- From old loft to lauch: genesis of a Yankee clipper -- Behind the romance, a bitter test of wills -- Every sea a racecourse, every voyage a trial of speed -- A passenger's view of a most pleasant voyage -- A grand ship that will last forever -- Down-easters: a last echo of a vanishing tradition.
