Reading

There are several books which capture the beauty and the romanticism of sailing in faraway seas.Harold William Tilman with his Eight Sailing and Mountaineering books is probably the best choice.Tilman was the first sailor ever to combine sailing and climbing, and devoted 25 years is sailing tothe coldest and remotest places on Earth. There are a scores of books about Arctic exploration, andwe would suggest ‘Barrow’s Boys’ and Apsley Cherry Garrard’s ‘The Worst Journey in the World’.Another very interesting book is ‘Cod’, by Mark Kurlansky. So many wars have been fought for thatfish that pretty much summarizes the story of cold seas.
