Author: PARDEY, LIN
Title: Seraffyn's Oriental Adventure
Description: Thomas Reed Publications. 1996. (ISBN: 9781853108617). Paperback, A5 white black text. Condition good. Two young dreamers present a fourth volume of their adventures in a 24'4" cutter which they built themselves. During their years of voyaging round the world, the Pardeys' routes had always been determined by the need to find the work to support their cruising lifestyle, or the desire to see an island spoken of by some favourite writer. Now they have to decide whether to continue eastward or turn back westward and complete the circle with a return to the place they once called home. The book's underlying theme is the demands of passage making as they sail up through the China seas and across the north Pacific. They cross the sea that spawned Homer's tales of Ulysses's odyssey, and then sail through the strife-torn Red Sea and across the violent waters of the Bay of Bengal. Used: Acceptable.
