Book Review: Letters From The Lost Soul
Summary: 4 Stars
A very enjoyable read. Don't expect to learn how to sail heavy weather of trim your sails. This is simply a realistic look at cruising from someone who has been there. He is funny and irreverent. If you wear a blue blazer and speak without moving your lips, this book is not for you. Bitchin's book is an amusing look at a sport that far too many take far too seriously.
