Description
When Robin Lee Graham was ten years old, his parents gave him a dinghy for his birthday, and he sailed a boat for the first time. At the age of sixteen, he set out to cross the Pacific in his 24-foot sloop, alone except for two kittens. He returned five years and 33,000 miles later. In the years between, he had circled the earth, battled tropical storms, and endured mind-numbing doldrums; he was nearly rammed by a freighter and swept overboard in high seas. Above all, he had wrestled with loneliness and near-despair. But Robin, the boy, survived the treachery of the seas, and in winning his victory over the elements returned home a man.
