Book Reviews of The Sailing Life

Book Review: The book I was supposed to have written
Summary: 5 Stars

Fabulous! His humor is surpassed only by his humililty, which many a sailor will find, uh, embarrassing. He knows his stuff and his experience is so evident. Want to cruise? Want to understand those of us nuts enough to cruise as a lifestyle? Read this and then if you don't get it, then get a life!

Summary of The Sailing Life

Bob Bitchin has a unique perspective from which to describe The Sailing Life. As founder and editor of the highly successful magazine Latitudes & Attitudes, he surveys and comments on the good and the bad, the funny and the sad, the practical and the theoretical of the sailing scene. This collection of his editorials and other writings is full of useful advice, keen observations and, yes, some outrageous comments as only Bob can put them on paper.

Readers of his bestseller, Letters from the LOST SOUL, will be delighted with this unique guide to the Sailing Life. Like Latitudes & Attitudes, Captain Bob is down to earth, irreverent, and always entertaining.
