Conditie: Good, Naam op schutblad, in goede staat. Illustrated by Thomas Fogartry and George Varian. Challenged by an expert who said it couldn't be done, Joshua Slocum, an indomitable New England sea captain, set out in April 1895 to prove that a man could sail alone around the world. 46.000 miles and a little over 3 years later, the proof was complete. Captain Slocum had performed the epic| "first" single-handedly in a trusty 34-foot sloop called the "Spray". This is Slocum's own account of his remarkable adventures during the historic voyage..
