Overview

In June 1977, Anthony Blondell and Dr. Bertha Paegel sailed out of the harbor at Long Beach, California, on what would be the first of their three circumnavigations of the globe aboard the Wayward Wind, a fifty-seven-foot, aft-cockpit ketch. Over the next twenty-plus years, the sturdy vessel would take them to such exotic ports-of-call as Pago Pago, Rangaroa, Papeete, Nukulaelae and Tagula. Darwin, Durban, Mauritius and Monrovia. Paramaribo, Bonaire, Curacao, Banaba and Dar es Salaam-just to name a few! From a cyclone in the Indian Ocean, to nearly running aground on the Great Barrier Reef, to run-ins with pirates, smugglers and man-eating sharks, this round-the-world tale of adventure on the high seas is a must read for sailors and landlubbers alike.
