review 1: I love books about boats and sailing and although not quite an armchair sailor my sailing experience does tend to be confined to rivers or hugging the coastlines of Greek Islands so I am filled with awe when I read about exploits such as the author's journey from the UK to Newfoundland across the North Atlantic in a vintage sailing boat.I have been vaguely aware of Chris Stewart's bestsellers about his life as a farmer in a remote part of Spain and based on this book (which was written later although the period it covers pre-dates his move to Spain)I will now seek out 'Driving over Lemons.
review 2: This book started off really well - amusing little piece about travelling to Greece to skipper a lady's boat for her - repairing the work left undone by someone who... more had been paid to do the work, etc...charming in places but not really enough of any substance. If you fancy a light, mildly amusing read about a bit of sailing in Greece and later up into the Arctic, this is for you...but you won't be missing too much if you find life is too short to bother.... less
