The road to Briar Island is an unmarked, gravel track that only someone with a persistent death wish would travel down. Along that road, it's best to drive with the windows up, the doors locked, and a loaded assault rifle under the seat. Vicki Brosko follows that road in search of the truth about her late husband's hunting accident. With a convicted felon named Ted Grainger at her side for protection, she abandons her better judgment and ventures deep into the dark heart of the north woods. At Briar Island, a grisly discovery leads to a lethal reunion of three shell-shocked Vietnam vets. When a festering grudge erupts into a savage feud, everyone soon learns that the shadow of Briar Island extends far beyond the incidental tragedy of one man's death. Briar Island . Are you up for it?
Joshua Slocum's epic solo voyage around the world in 1895 in the 37 foot sloop Spray stands as one of the greatest sea adventures of all time. It remains one of the major feats of singlehanded voyaging, and has since been the inspiration for the many who have gone to sea in small boats. Starting from Boston in 1895, by the time he dropped anchor in Newport, Rhode Island over three years after his journey began, he had cruised some 46,000 miles entirely by sail and entirely alone. Slocum's account of his epic voyage is a classic of sailing literature, acclaimed as an unequalled masterpiece of vital yet disciplined prose. It will be welcomed by admirers of his legendary achievement. 'It is a timeless work that can be read again and again, and a story that totally absorbs the reader with it's enormity and honest endeavour' RNSA Journal 'Slocum's prose is a model of its kind: honest, vivid, salty, and at times, lyrical' Traditional Boats and Tall Ships 'One of the all-time classic sailing narratives' Classic Boat
