In his third book singlehanded sailor Roger Taylor ventures to even
more remote seas aboard his tiny junk-rigged yacht Mingming. The
first voyage, across the North Atlantic to Baffin Island, is
curtailed when Taylor is injured in a storm in the Davis Strait.
Unwilling to sail on into the ice with a broken rib, he turns round
and re-crosses the Atlantic to Plymouth, completing a non-stop
voyage of over 4000 miles. The second voyage takes the reader to
Jan Mayen, Spitsbergen and on to 80 DegreesNorth, virtually as
close as it is possible to sail to the North Pole. During these two
voyages Taylor spends well over four months at sea, observing and
reflecting on the sea itself, its wildlife, its attraction, and
man's uneasy relationship with it.
