One of the Best Sea Stories Ever Written!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
I happened upon this book in a trading library (as I do most of the books I read). It was tattered and all the pages were loose from the binding, but I was intrigued by the tale of two young men in a tiny boat crossing the Atlantic in the era of yachting before ammenities and electronics took over.My boyfriend and partner/captain read it first and he was continually laughing out loud and begging to read it to me. I protested saying "You'll ruin it, if you read it out loud to me"!The story of these two wry, guileless, enthusiastic young men is a delight for a reader that is used to reading the plodding, egocentric accounts of most sea voyage stories. Buy this book! And try to figure out Hannibal!
