Book
Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Derek Lundy is a magnificent storyteller and in this book he takes us on an extraordinary journey. His ancestor Benjamin Lundy crossed oceans under sail in the late nineteenth century and over one hundred years later his great-great nephew has re-created that journey. In The Way of a Ship he places Benjamin on board the Beara Head with a community of fellow seamen as they perform the exhausting and dangerous work of sailing a square-rigger across the Atlantic and round Cape Horn. These beautiful, widow-making, deep-sea ships represented near technological perfection. They could move fast in almost all weather and carry huge cargos. But they demanded much of the men who sailed in them. Life at sea, was a brutal and unforgiving business. Fed on a diet of pea soup, gristly salt horse, rock hard weevil-invested biscuits and just enough lemon to keep scurvy at bay, the seamen were dangerously malnourished and sleep-deprived. But their instinct was to give their all through the battering, screaming winds. The equation was simple: they would survive if the ship survived and so they fought to save the ship. As Benjamin Lundy nears the Horn and its attendant terrors, the traditional qualities of the sailor - fatalism, stoicism, courage and unquestioning obedience to a strict authority - are revealed with all their necessary and unrelenting force. This is a powerful and enlightening tale and like Melville and Conrad before him Derek Lundy adorns his story with a profound knowledge of the sea and sailing and reminds us that the ocean voyage under sail is an overarching metaphor for life itself. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Book
Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Writing about a building storm, the physics of great waves, the finer points of boat-handling in hurricane force wind, he is always simple, eloquent and sometimes arrestingly vivid. You could follow him and share on the elation and terror, even if you'd never been aboard a sailboat in your life' JONATHAN RABAN The Vendee Globe-a 27, 000 mile single-handed yacht race through the world's most treacherous seas, a journey that takes the competitors to one of the most isolated places on earth. In the four months that it takes to sail the route the racers pit themselves against the sea and cope with all it offers-icebergs, hurricane-force winds, waves the height of six-storey buildings, deafening noise as their boats hit the giant waves-and all this whilst suffering from severe sleep deprivation and sometimes desperate loneliness. On 3 November 1996 sixteen sailors, Tony Bullimore and Pete Goss among them, set out. Only six crossed the finishing line, six others either withdrew or were disqualified for seeking outside help, three were plucked from sinking boats while the world watched and one disappeared without trace. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.
