      Ed Sprague has raced Stars for 46 years. His book is a labor of love of the one-design International Star and Olympic Keelboat. The Star Class has survived ninety-nine years, becoming the world's largest one-design keel class. World Championship regattas regularly attract over 100 competitors from around the world.
