It is, though, a real pleasure to read the individual anecdotes. I found myself telling the stories to my husband, showing him pictures of the various vessels and even, at one point, demonstrating how a large ship could be brought into a relatively narrow dock with the aid of a mouse and mouse pad. I left my husband looking at some of the many pictures and came back later to find him engrossed in the stories. It's a couple of days now since I finished the book and I've found myself thinking back over what I've read.
For further reading you might enjoy [[Three Ways to Capsize a Boat: An Optimist Afloat by Chris Stewart]], or for another story of an eventful life, try [[Road to the Dales: The Story of a Yorkshire Lad by Gervase Phinn]].
