Caracteristici
A
classic
of
sailing
literature
and
one
of
the
greatest
sea
adventures
of
all
time
-
a
dramatic
personal
account
of
the
first
singlehanded
circumnavigation
Notă biografică
Joshua
Slocum
became
a
legend
by
being
the
first
person
to
sail
around
the
globe
alone
in
1895
in
a
37-foot
sloop,Spray,
that
he
rebuilt
himself
from
a
derelict
oyster
sloop.
He
is
possibly
the
best
known
single-handed
sailor
ever
to
have
lived.
Dame
Ellen
MacArthur
was
the
youngest
person
ever
to
complete
the
Vendee
Globe,
and
in
2005
broke
the
record
for
the
fastest
solo
circumnavigation
of
the
globe.
She
was
described
by
the
Observer
as
'The
first
true
heroine
of
the
21st
Century'
and
has
been
named
Sailor
of
the
Year
twice.
Recenzii
Yes,
Slocum's
journey
was
'epic'
but
it
was
also
eccentric,
unlikely
and
his
unsurpassable
action
elegiac...The
unaffected
and
quirky
intimacy
with
which
he
writes
will
never
be
matched.
You
cannot
do
what
he
did
any
more.
