About the author

Mr. Alan Villiers (23 September 1903 - 3 March 1982) was an Australian sailor who had won considerable fame for himself as a result of his voyages in sailing-ships. Mr. Villiers preferred the excitement and the danger of small sailing-ships to the comfort and the safety of the modern ship.

Reviews

[Sam O'H · Rating 4 out of 5]

I haven't read many traditional history books, but I really enjoyed this one.
I probably found it easier to read and more entertaining because of an upcoming trip to the Indian Ocean.

For picking up a book about a subject that I had little to no prior knowledge of, this was a great success.
