Thelwell | Three Sheets in the Wind
Three Sheets in the Wind by legendary British cartoonist Norman Thelwell is a wonderfully entertaining collection of cartoons celebrating the pleasures, ambitions and inevitable mishaps of sailing. With his unmistakable eye for human behaviour and comic detail, Thelwell captures the world of boats, sails, enthusiastic amateurs and seasoned sailors, turning the challenges of life on the water into quintessentially British comedy.
Presented as a tongue-in-cheek guide for sailors everywhere, the book affectionately explores both the practical perils of sailing and the social prestige attached to owning a boat. Reissued by Allison & Busby in 2023 to mark the centenary of Thelwell's birth, this nostalgic collection introduces his timeless humour to a new generation while delighting established fans. A charming gift for sailors, boating enthusiasts and admirers of classic British cartoons.
