Home from Distant Seas

Home from Distant Seas concludes James Baldwin's trilogy chronicling his 25 years of live-aboard cruising adventures. This memoir follows his second circumnavigation as he journey homeward from South Africa to the United States, encountering fierce storms and diverse characters along the way, including treasure hunters and a couple who sailed around the world on separate boats. Through his engaging narrative, Baldwin offers a vivid portrait of the sea and the eclectic individuals who embrace life on the water, ultimately celebrating a unique way of life rather than focusing solely on the art of sailing.
