Voyage seas of adventure, romance, high times! A must read., February 22, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Voyage of the Forest Dream & Other Sea Adventures (Paperback)
Relive the vibrant days when sea travel meant sailing with the wind, sailors climbed masts to dizzying heights to set sails on ships swaying in high seas and when journeys ended, crews were paid in gold coins. The author does a masterful job of drawing the reader into another time and another place. One can actually smell the fresh ocean air, see crowds thronging narrow alleyways in exotic ports and see the blood and sweat fly when shipmates brawl. The best part of this wonderful book is the fact that it is a true story. Voyage of the Forest Dream chronicles the life of an amazing man, Capt. Niels P. Thomsen,USCG (ret). I loved the book and predict that this lively and engaging memoir will be made into a movie.
