Paul A. Lester

This is a personal journey of epic proportions, tightly written in an autobiographical manner by an experienced sailor--who of all professions was also a very successful lawyer. The book paints glorious pictures of nature at sea and the immense challenges requiring both inner strength and physical hardship, along with necessary cooperative, but tense efforts among the ship's crew, to bring the voyages described safely to completion. A fast, very exciting read.
