Webb Chiles, whose adventures were previously chronicled in A Single Wave, returns with a beautifully written account of his fourth circumnavigation. Leaving astern the bleak winter of Boston Harbour and his despair over the near-fatal loss of his previous vessel, his joy in being at sea again, with his wife, Carol, makes this a joyous and inspiring story. He observes the great harbours of the world with a true sailor's eye and presents a unique philosophical view of life under sail. 224pp Illustrated HB
