Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For thousands of years, man has sailed into battle, sailed for rumored wealth, and sailed for pure adventure. And for nearly as long, stories about the sea have entertained, intrigued, and inspired readers. The Greatest Sailing Stories Ever Told brings together some of the most compelling writing of the millennium. Here is Peter Goss's wrenching narrative of incredible courage in the world's most desolate ocean along with Ernest Shackleton's understated and awesome account of one of the most daring small-boat journeys ever taken, where failure meant certain death for his long-suffering crew. But sailing is much more than headlong dashes into roaring seas. You'll also find William F. Buckley Jr. on idyllic cruising; James Thurber on the arcane and often impenetrable language of sailors; and the legendary Joshua Slocum on sailing alone around the world. The Greatest Sailing Stories Ever Told is a treasure trove: tears, adrenaline, laughter, and adventure abound. With contributions from: - James Thurber -William F. Buckley Jr. - Ann Davison - Sterling Hayden - Ernest Shackleton - Tristan Jones - Samuel Eliot Morrison - Joshua Slocum - E. B. White - C. S. Forester - Cleveland Amory - Weston Martyr - Peter Goss - David Kasanof – and many others.

Download or read book Voyages of the Seven Seas written by Robertson Browne and published by Createspace Independent Pub. This book was released on 2013-04-28 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ALL PROFITS FROM ROYALTIES GO TO THE SCHOLARSHIP FUND AT MAINE MARITIME ACADEMY Voyages of the Seven Seas Veterans home from the war have wanderlust and sail to Europe; broken arms, broken rudders, and faulty equipment complicate the voyage; and the following year, only one of them makes the return trip in a voyage that breaks three sailing records-one of which still stands. Two young veterans of WWII find that they are unable to settle into tranquil civilian life and decide to see Europe and perhaps the world itself from the deck of a small sailboat. Laughed at and derided by others, they nonetheless set out in the summer of 1947 for Europe aboard the Seven Seas, a 38-foot gaff-rigged yawl, some 36 years old. Stanley Cressey narrates the log for the voyage across the Atlantic with stops in Bermuda and the Azores. Once in Portugal, the two men travel to Paris for the winter. Instead of sailing into the Mediterranean in the spring of 1948, Joe Petterson decides to sail back to Maine. As Stan decides against a second crossing, Joe becomes even more determined to make the sail alone. The second half of the narrative is from Joe's logbook entries. He endures gale force winds and a leaky hull, but his grit and resolve overcome all obstacles. In the end, he lands in Northeast Harbor, Maine after a record setting crossing. In 1948, Joe was the youngest person to sail solo from east to west across the Atlantic; he did so in the fastest time; and he made the voyage in the oldest boat! Complete with pictures and appendices full of nautical information, the editors, Browne and Doggett have compiled a truly remarkable tale designed to be not only enjoyable but inspirational for all. We believe the narrative woven from their stories captures the essence of a time and place long lost in our current technological society. We hope you enjoy it....
