Joshua Slocum's solo voyage around the world in 1895 in the sloop "Spray" stands as one of the world's greatest adventures. By the end he had cruised some 46,000 miles by sail and entirely alone - much of the time with wheel lashed while he sat below reading, cooking or mending his clothes.

Review
"A literate and absorbing yarn. . . His story is a convincing tale of the intelligence, skill and fortitude that drove a master navigator."
