Originally published as "Big Old Sun" by G.P. Putnam's in 1941. This re-titled paperback edition published by Crest (210) is dated March 1958. Cover art is not credited, though there appears to be a signature (captal M?) on the hull of her boat. It's difficult to make out, as the cover image really is that blurred!!
