Book Description

October 1, 1998
Reprint of a comic 60's look at the world of boats and boating through the eyes of a variety of attempted escapees of the rat race. Zen nuggets, marina etiquette, boat fixer-uppers and appearances by wildly mythic heroes of boating all combine for a rare literary addition to the boating bookshelf.

Editorial Reviews

From the Publisher

A rare chance to add literary zest to your boat book collection. This is the revival of a 'hippy' classic. A great period piece that still offers timely wit and antidotes to the consumerism taking over todays boating.

5.0 out of 5 stars More to come of "Capt. Nemo" by Hal Painter?, June 9, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: The Captain Nemo Cookbook Papers: Everyone's Guide to Zen and the Art of Boating in Hard Times Illustrated, A Nautical Fantasy (Paperback)
Hal Painter's enthusiasm is irrepressible and infectious. His "Captain Nemo's Cookbook Papers" puts the world of boats back in the water.

I'm a friend of Hal's and have read the complete manuscript. Many scenes were cut from the original edition. Maybe it's time for the whole thing. Don Cochrane.
