Description
William F. Buckley's epic sail across the Atlantic with his son and five friends is a story of adventure, risk, and self-discovery.
The 4,400-mile journey was years in the making, but nothing could have prepared them for the challenges they faced on the open sea. From the vicissitudes of the ocean to the comforts of their cosmopolitan lifestyle, Buckley's account is a graphic and instructive tale of survival and camaraderie.
As he recounts his experiences, Buckley lifts the book from mere chronicle of the sea to a chronicle of our time, a passage of the spirit that will resonate with anyone who has ever faced uncertainty or pushed beyond their limits.
