T&T: great cruising books, great literature

[Dr. Gordon Anderson]

Don't forget:

The Cruise of the Snark by Jack London
William Buckley's Racing Through Paradise, Atlantic High, Wind Fall and
Airborn
And my favorite
Farley Nowat's The Boat that Wouldn't Float

Not exactly about sailing but the Life of Pi by Yann Martel is a good read
about spending time adrift at sea in a life boat.
