There is an inscription on the front end page to Hilda M. Wotherspoon signed by the author and dated 2/5/51. This is the story of Christian West, who was a good Victorian who became Ship's Captain and made a name for herself in the days when women were not expected to tackle a man's job at all -- let alone with spectacular success.
