Bold Sea Stories by Marlin Bree Pdf
In Bold Sea Stories, award-winning journalist Marlin Bree writes about the legends and lore of the world's wickedest waters, from the North Atlantic to the South Pacific, as well as upon (and in the dark depths) the world's biggest inland ocean, Lake Superior. With a mariner's insight and delight, he tells 21 rousing true-life tales of notorious storms, shipwrecks, and doomed crews fighting incredible challenges and undergoing transformative inspirational beauty. The nautical nonfiction tales are told told with a master mariner's insights and with an emphasis on quick pace, full-bodied tales with dramatic narrative, strong characters, and an inspiring conclusion. Imagine sailing into a storm at sea in a 10-foot homemade boat while attempting to cross the Pacific Ocean. Or surviving 100 mph. winds alone in the open cockpit of a small sailboat as the storm of the century hits? Or the incredible ordeal of an old man who launches his open boat to search for a lost friend as a horrific ice storm descends? Nautical terms are explained in context so that even a non-boating enthusiast can understand the action and appreciate what is happening. In the wild North Country, he finds dreams and a drive toward inspirational adventures, which he brings as an award-winning maritime author to Bold Sea Stories.
