Two on a big ocean; the story of the first circumnavigation of the pacific basin
Year: 1972 Language: english Author: Hal Roth Genre: Textbook Publisher: The Macmillan Company Edition: First ISBN: 978-0963956644 Format: PDF Quality: Scanned pages Pages count: 312 Description: This is a re-read. Roth and his wife take an 18 month journey on their 35 foot sail boat around the big circle of the Pacific Ocean: from San Francisco, south to Samoa north to Japan, north to Aleutian islands to Canada to San Francisco. It is a sailing book with lots of sailing terms without a diagram of a boat and all the different sails. So I had to look up what the different sails and boat terms were. What I did like was his descriptions of the various out of the way places where he and his wife stopped. They stopped at some 70 places in their travels. He stayed away from the tourist places and stayed in small ports. He became friends with the locals who bombarded him with food and local hand made goods. Roth and his wife were invited into several homes where they were accepted as members of the family. So, the book is more than about sailing, it is about the human spirit and the friendly people were everywhere.
