SUMMARY:Vincent Miles at Pleasant Bay Community Boating: The Lost Hero of Cape Cod: Captain Asa Eldridge and the Maritime Trade that Shaped America
DESCRIPTION:The Lost Hero of Cape Cod: Captain Asa Eldridge and the Maritime Trade that Shaped America\n\nVincent Miles\n\nAuthor\n\nApril 8  |  5 PM at PBCB's Hillside Meeting Room and virtually on Zoom\n\nBorn in the small village of Yarmouth Port in 1809\, Asa Eldridge grew up to become one of the world's greatest shipmasters. Even today he still holds the record for the fastest crossing of the Atlantic Ocean by a sailing ship\, which he set in a run from New York to Liverpool in 1854. In recounting Asa Eldridge's fascinating career\, Vin Miles also tells a much broader story: of the rise of America's merchant navy to a dominant position over Britain's in the decades following the War of 1812\, and of the government-subsidized British response that created the legendary Cunard Line.\n\n\n\nPlease RSVP on our website!
