5.0 out of 5 stars True adventure, February 2, 2011
This review is from: Born In The Breezes: The Voyages Of Joshua Slocum (Hardcover)
What a wonderful biography - Joshua Slocum is a guy's guy. Loving and responsible, daring and adept, determined and wry - this is a good character for boys (and girls!) to know about. This is a longer, more complex picture biography - 3rd grade and up, I would say.

The illustrations are WOW! Almost VanGogh-ish with the brushed skies and the weathered boards and the rippled water and the portraits. This is a true biography of an inspirational man - a regular guy doing extraordinary things and sailing around the globe - solo.
