Back in print, now in softcover Boats were John L. Hacker's life, often taking precedence over family and friends, whom he expected to adjust to his curious schedules and emotional ups and downs. In this wonderful look back at the man and his fast-moving mahogany-and-steel sculptures, author James P. Barry details Hacker's elegant runabouts, cruisers, and racers, while examining the life of the enigmatic designer. From the young man taking correspondence courses in boat design, to the 74-year old legend designing a military rescue boat in the twilight of his career, no corner of Hacker's legacy is left untouched.
