I greatly enjoyed reading this book. It is written from the perspective of someone who is not an experienced sailor joining up for a three year round the world cruise via the warm water route. As such, the book is a little short on technical and navigational detail that someone planning such a trip might want. He was with his sailing partner, James, for all of the trip, but there were extra crew for some of the legs.Their adventures are well described in prose that is, perhaps, a little flowery in places but I would rather have that than bland pilot book wording. He manages to convey the real feeling of sailing into a stunning anchorage in, say, the Marquesas, making one very jealous. This book is a wonderful read for the dark winter evenings.
