“2500 nautical miles to go, plenty of time to tell the story,” says Christian Williams as he begins his inspiring and entertaining tale of evolution from a distracted schoolboy to Washington Post journalist, Hollywood writer-producer and long-distance singlehanded sailor with more than 10 million views on YouTube.

With an infectious curiosity that ranges from bilge pump mechanics to issues of philosophy of identity, the author never flags in his quest to learn what makes every life distinctive and yet defined by its intersection with others. Paralleling his two careers are loving evocations of the 20 boats Williams says sustained him through success, upheaval, clinical depression and a worrisome medical diagnosis.

A confidant I have never met, who has lead an incredible life with such a kind introspection. listening to his words on sailing and life has become a guilty pleasure. Maybe owning a sailboat isn't completely crazy.

capturing as usual...

I’m thoroughly enjoying it - actually savoring it. I’ve been a huge fan since vicariously sailing along with Christian in Alone Together. As a sailor I enjoy the technical sailing aspects, as a reader I enjoy the adventures, as a listener I enjoy the narration. All are excellent.

Sit back, put some Monk on in the background, and join in. You will be warmly welcomed.

Like all his other books I look forward to multiple rereads. Highly recommended!

A great voyage
