It was not until she was in her forties that seafaring became a big part of Fran's life, this coming about through an unaccountable strong attraction to "tall ships". In particular, her account of life and work on board of the replica of James Cook's Endeavour gives us an insight into what only a few have had the luck to experience. Fran Taylor captures the essence of life aboard several 20th century sailing vessels from different countries.
