The Last Time Around Cape Horn

I read this some time ago when I was dreaming of joining the Two Weeks Before the Mast program on the Lady Washington, and found it extremely engaging. This is a story of sailing a tall ship in a modern context – not during the golden age of sail, but when the world had already changed and technologies were advancing, so in the story telling you traverse two eras. If you love ships or adventure or both, this is a very engaging read.
