"I love Peter Jenkins' books, they are beautiful and so real to the America I'm learning to love. This is a brave story of an ordinary chap who learns to sail, then sails along the Gulf and America's coastline, taking his time to understand the culture and people who have long called the coastline home. Wish I was this brave to just jump and go...."
"I've read other books by Peter and enjoyed them... I like this one too. Peter is on a boat and exploring the Gulf Coast. He starts out in the Florida Keys. So far I've read about a number of charactors he has met: the half Seminole Indian/half Irish brothers who live in the swamps; the young drug smuggler who got caught, etc. I'm enjoying the book. What he does on these trips is exactly what I like doing on vacations -- meet people!"
