Paperback. Condition: New - Acceptable. In 1968 Donald Crowhurst, an amateur sailor in an untested trimaran, amazed the public by taking the lead in the first solo round-the-world sailing race. Eight months later, his boat was found abandoned in mid-Atlantic. Based on interviews with family and friends, and Crowhurst's logbook, this account of the stress that prompted him to deceive the world and suffer a mental breakdown formed the basis of the movie The Mercy, starring Colin Firth. Off-mint and felt-tip mark on lower trimmed edge.

Add to baskethardcover. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. First. 316 pages, illustrated/ photographs, maps, indexed. A very nice clean copy of uncommon hardcover - a 4th impression, dustjacket still bright. * One of the strangest nautical stories of how Crowhurst persuaded others to help him build a boat,gained sponsorship and, although he had little experience, set off round the world in the Sunday Times non-stop race in 1968. It reveals how he managed to fool the world that he was circling the globe when really, he never made it past the Atlantic. The strain of his deception,the strain of being eight months alone at sea destroyed his sanity and finally ended his life. It remains one the greatest sea dramas of the 20th century.
