Author Description

"From Where We Sail" follows author Dianne Lane, her husband Robb, and their two young children on a sailing journey in the 90s. Starting in San Diego, the famous, retired 61-foot race boat Sorcery took them the long way to North Carolina. Travelling from one "big stop" to the next, dozens of wondrous adventures came their way, many on islands or reefs so small they aren't even flyspecks on a wall-sized map. While waiting out hurricane seasons, the family lived in New Zealand, the Marshall Islands, Australia, and South Africa. Candid photos capture this family's life on the high seas as well as time spent on land among many cultures. Sure, some scary things happened, but everyone lived to tell the story of a lifetime.
