A memoir of life as an adventurer and sailor in the Mediterranean,
by the noted naval historian. Ernle Bradford spent his twenty-first
birthday in Egypt, serving in the Royal Navy during World War II.
It was there that he came across the profoundly affecting words of
Anton Chekhov: "Life does not come again; if you have not lived
during the days that were given to you, once only, then write it
down as lost." After the war, Bradford married and settled in
London, but the mandate of those words inspired him and his wife to
quit their jobs, sell their home, and sail to France in their small
ship Mother Goose. The Journeying Moon chronicles their adventures
as they travel through Europe and the Mediterranean. From the
people of Malta who believed Bradford was a spy from MI5, to his
interactions with the Sicilian Mafia, Bradford tells the charming
and vivid tale of his days as a true adventurer.
