The life and cartoons of a legendary yachting humourist

Peyton: The World's Greatest Yachting Cartoonist is written by Dick Durham, a former Fleet Street journalist and Features Editor at Yachting Monthly, about his lifelong friend Mike Peyton, one of the most widely loved cartoonists in the sailing world.

The book traces Peyton's path from early sketching talent through wartime service, including work producing maps for military intelligence and running a newspaper as a prisoner of war, and on to a long freelance career that took his cartoons well beyond sailing publications alone.

An entertaining read for sailors and anyone who appreciates cartoon art with a maritime sense of humour, offering both biography and a showcase of Peyton's work.
