Review:
...for readers who love the sea and the well-told tale, the work of Joshua Slocum will always be rewarding. He lived in an era when self-reliance was not a virtue but a necessity.

Grand to have the excuse to re-read Sailing Alone Around the World, to find the wit as dry as ever, to savour again the tintacks and the pilot of the Pinta. But how does one review such a classic, except to say, 'Read it!' to those who have not?--Cruising Association Bulletin
