Sailing Alone Around the World - The Original Classic Edition

Joshua Slocum

Description

Joshua Slocum was the first person to sail around the world. In this book he tells about his voyage. Joshua Slocums story is very entertaining to read. He writes about the practical and technical challenges of long distance sailing in the 19th century and about his encounters with the peoples and tribes on his route.
The writing style is short and factual, but that almost makes the impression even stronger given that more often than not Joshua Slocum had to face death and only escaped with the narrowest of margins.
They dont makeem like that any more... I highly recommend this book. its a great read!
