Waypoints to a New Life: Learning to Sail at Fifty (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781696044080)

Becalmed at mid-life, in need of a new dream, this autobiographical work tells the tale of a psychologist who learned to sail at 50 and pursued nautical adventures from San Francisco Bay to the British Virgin Islands and beyond. Replete with laughable mistakes and hard won successes, reviewers have called the book "Funny and profound," another "like the best of the Latitude 38 sea stories," and a third "an immersive narrative of the adventures and misadventures of an "ethanophilic" middle-aged man learning to sail. Newton's pursuit of distant islands dares us to live courageously and invites us to find new pleasures and to grow."
