Reviews

Beautiful book, painful narration


(4 stars)

The text is a beautiful exposition of an I-Thou relationship with the sea. The narrator's mispronunciations of quay, Thames, and boatswain are painful to hear.

Masterpiece of the sea literature!


(5 stars)

Best read for sea lovers and navigation addicted! Easy reading/listening thanks to the warm and clear voice.

Fascinating memories well worth the listening
