About

Rowdy is a story that begins with Christopher Madsen’s undertaking to rebuild and bring back to life the famous 1916 racing yacht Rowdy. Along the way Madsen’s investigation of the original owner, New York senator Holland Sackett Duell, uncovered a remarkable true life 1920s adventure and love story; one which fully brings to life the era and flair of Gatsby and Hemmingway yet, by contrast, Rowdy is completely true, historically significant and meticulously documented in support of the authenticity. An award winning story and a beautiful coffee table book; 8 ½ X 11 hardcover with the look of worn, vintage leather, gold leaf stamping, rounded spine woven burgundy book mark.
