Heart of the Story: Notes From A Reporter’s Free-Spirited Life

Based in Newport, Rhode Island, sailing and skiing ­journalist Barbara Lloyd made her name as the longtime boating writer for the New York Times, where she covered numerous America’s Cup regattas as well as the international yachting scene. Her exceptional encounters with countless famous sailors, skiers and mountaineers are a candid glimpse behind the scene.

But where this memoir really shines is in the details of her adventurous life, especially her days plying the oceans on a freighter with her sea captain partner. Sometimes a reporter’s best stories are their very own.
