DESPERATE VOYAGE

A sea thriller -- good yarning and eminently readable. A youth, in May 1946, was determined to rejoin his Australian bride, and set out from Panama in a sailing cutter, with a crew of two kittens, to go the 8,500 miles alone. A greenhorn in the art of sailing, what he didn't learn in brief training he learned in the school of experience, seven long months of adventure and misadventure. A whopping yarn.
