The France, the Creole, the Salem, the Britanis, the America, the Ile de France and others - ships from a bygone age, vessels or sailing boats that proudly carry their own myths and others' dreams. Using as starting-point the ship's log, a work of literature or a tale from an old sailor or amateur historian, the series tells of the fabulous, contrasting and sometimes tragic adventures of seven magnificent ships that made history.
