Sailing's Strangest Tales brings together a collection of extraordinary but true stories from over nine hundred years of sailing. This fascinating book reveals unusual and bizarre tales of sailors, vessels, and characters, as well as perilous journeys in freak weather and legendary stories.
Within these pages, you'll find stories of pirates holding ships to ransom, sailors lost in the Bermuda triangle, and the gruesome fates of those who dared cross pirates. The tales are bizarre, fascinating, and hilarious, and most importantly, they're true. Revised, redesigned, and updated for 2016, this book is a great gift for both keen sailors and armchair Captains.
