A wonderful mishmash of sailing and adventure that's just an easy, fun read. The author is a great storyteller and he has great stories to tell. And the language, the vocabulary, is exquisite. He interrupts his narrative to insert the logs of others, especially son Christopher, a wonderful but very different writer himself. And then there's this Moby Dick-style insertion of what he claims is an easy how-to on celestial navigation, which of course is far from easy.
