Bought as a gift. Person, as expected, thinks it a great story well told.
Buy this in hard cover if only to protect the Rockwell Kent illustrations in print for someone into the future. Buy the hard cover/Rockwell Kent Moby Dick for the same reasons, but expect that one to blow your mind.
ALL of Rockwell Kent's book are worth a look for History and Wilderness Exploration Buffs.
He was a man of innumerable skills, in addition to being America's most famous Illustrator and Graphic Designer a century ago!
So appreciated that his obituary was printed on the front page of the New York Times...
Lovely book, great story and fabulous woodcut illustrations!
A hard book to read and understand. The old writing is interesting for maybe some people and the story is very good ,but just not for me.
I recently became a fan of Rockwell Kent after a friend showed me some of his artwork. Upon reading a little (very little) about him I found this book, and I discovered that he illustrated it himself. I identify with the author's yearning for adventure and exploration, and this book is a great, real story of just that...adventure and exploration. Fun read for me!
Sought this out after reading Sterling Hayden's, Wanderer, and enjoyed the narrative as well as Kent's illustrations. This is an exciting colorful account of an ostensible failure of a sea adventure, a shipwreck that leads to an encounter with the inhabitants of Greenland that is as interesting as the voyagers' numerous close calls. The intimate scale of the voyage, a small sailing vessel, a crew of three men of varied background and motivation, lent itself well to Kent's deeper reflections on human character. This edition's information about the author's life and checkered career is a plus.
