Informative and fun book, with a great blend of sailing information plus stories of the people and places that Hal and Margaret experienced on their long circumnavigation. This is a book about freedom and exploration. Hal assumes that readers already have a basic knowledge of sailing lingo.

An interesting and education read. Hal is a sailor's sailor.
Using his colorful descriptions and numerous maps, Hal Roth does an exceptional job of painting the picture of cruising. He includes those details and facts that make you feel like you are part of the read. Each chapter is long enought to make it a nightly read before turning in. However, the book is one you will always be ready to pick up. I even carried it in my briefcase, reading it during lunch. I would recommend this book to anyone who is interested in or already has some crusing experience. Enjoy!
