Sailing Alone Around the World (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9798875001833)

Sailing Alone Around the World is cartoonist Jon Buller's adaptation of Joshua Slocum's eponymous memoir. In April of 1895, Captain Slocum took off from Boston aboard a 36 foot wooden sloop that he renovated himself and proceeded to sail around the world -- a three-year voyage of more than 46,000 miles!--becoming the first person to single-handedly circle the globe. Upon his return, he wrote a memoir of his voyage recounting his adventures--hair-raising encounters with pirates off Gibraltar, raging tempests and treacherous coral reefs-- which is brought to vivid graphic life by cartoonist Jon Buller.
