This compelling biography details the life of Alan Villiers--distinguished sailor, prolific author, and gifted photographer--and the world he inhabited. Born in Melbourne, Australia, in 1903, Villiers exhibited an intense fascination with the sea and sailing from an early age, embarking on his inaugural voyage at the age of 15. Subsequent sailing trips took him all over the world, including on a whaling expedition to the Antarctic and a harrowing journey from Australia to England, and provided Villiers with ample material to feed his other passion: journalism. Containing numerous never-before-published photographs, this account captures not only the heart and soul of Villiers, but also the rapid decline of the sailing age.
