A book worth reading for sailor's is Robin Lee Graham's book "Dove"?

The sequel to the book is Robin's book "Home is the Sailor" also very

Yes, made a great film in the American tradition.....Ignored the fact

to continue the journey and that he really didn't want to continue
except that he had been advanced so much money.
I'd suggest that there are better books to read....
