Celebrate Nancy Blackett’s 90th Anniversary with Good Little Ship, the definitive story of Arthur Ransome’s favourite boat, now on special offer at £10  (normally £14).

Written by Peter Willis, co-founder and President of the Nancy Blackett Trust, Good Little Ship takes a deep dive into the boat, the book she inspired (We Didn’t Mean to Go to Sea – a classic of marine literature, and ‘a book of which Conrad would have been proud’ according to Hugh Brogan) and the history of her near-death, restoration and renaissance as an ambassador for Arthur Ransome.

Good Little Ship: Arthur Ransome, Nancy Blackett and the Goblin is now available from the Nancy Blackett Shop for just £10 plus shipping (saving 29% on the usual price).

Don’t forget our other special 90th Anniversary offers, including discounts on a selection of Nancy Blackett teatowels, such as our unique 90th Anniverary Teatowel that features a copy of Nancy Blackett’s certificate of registration. and a variety of Nancy Blackett Christmas and greetings cards that include original designs by marine artist Claudia Myatt.
