"Tim" skrev i en meddelelse
...
Any suggestions for good maritime fiction? I have heard William Clark
Russell wrote many stories but I Have never managed to find any, and would
prefer recommendations.

I have fondled some Patrick O'Brien but frankly it looks fairly drab and I
am not given to stories set much before my arbitrary cut-off date of 1875.

In terms of non-fiction I would recommend 'Sailing alone around the world'
by Joshua Slocombe wholeheartedly.

I read a great one a couple of years ago: Frank Sherry , Pacific passions.
The story of how everyone tried to find Australia for 150 years....

Have fun
