Rarely has there been a seafaring journey so horrendous as that of Howard Blackburn. Now for the first time, a full account of this harrowing journey has been offered by Joseph E. Garland. In 1883, Blackburn set sail with a shipmate on a routine fishing trip that quickly became a nightmare. Engulfed by a sudden squall, the two men fought freezing rain and brutal winds for days. While his shipmate died, Blackburn somehow managed to row more than 100 kilometres to safety in Newfoundland. Lone Voyager is a remarkable story of an incredible journey. Beautifully written and totally engrossing, this story of one man's will and determination will surely delight all and inspire many. | Lone Voyager by Joseph E Garland, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
