"No one describes the experience of navigating a small boat in a big sea better than Raban....This is more than a travel book--it is a unique amalgamation of travel, reminiscence, history, anthropology and literary criticism. [This book] is beautifully constructed, its chapters and sections dovetailing with precision, and it is written with exceptional clarity and excellence."Jonathan Raban is the author of 'Passage to Juneau: A Sea and Its Meanings', published 2000 under ISBN 9780679776147 and ISBN 0679776141.
