Drawing on his many adventures, Jones evokes memorable people and beautiful cruising grounds in this collection of some of his finest stories. He gives advice on everything from seamanship to dealing with local populations in remote places. Not to be missed is the marvelous tale of the mystery of the MARY CELESTE in the style of Conan Doyle, or "Breakdown", the Conrad-inspired story of a troubled steamship. Other yarns include the tale of an unlikely salvage operation in Ibiza, a strange rendezvous on the coast of Africa, and a coincidental meeting with one of America's greatest cruising sailors.
"The characters and capers, including a Sherlock Holmes-style mystery, pour deliciously from the pen of this legendary adventurer." Cruising World
"...a burning natural talent....his writings are a pleasure for any lover of good writing as well as a brilliant collection of yarns about his life, his sailing adventures, and his thoughts about man and the sea." Lloyds List
