Full of astounding adventures and hair-raising thrills, Sailing Alone around the World is the true story of the first man ever to circle the globe alone entirely by sea. First published in 1900, only two years after Slocum, a New England sea captain, completed his historic voyage, the book has remained in print ever since.

About the Author
Captain Joshua Slocum (1844–1909) was the first person to circle the globe alone entirely by sea. On April 24, 1895, he departed Boston in his 37-foot sloop, Spray, and sailed around the world, returning to Newport, Rhode Island, on June 27, 1898. This remarkable achievement made Slocum the most famous North American sailor of all time.
