<p>Dwight Long took his little "idle Hour" from Seattle down among the islands, to Tahiti and Samoa and Tonga and all those lovely far-off places, and weathered hurricanes and avoided reefs, and paid his bills and pacified his crews, and made friends and sailed his way leisurely and pleasantly along. What a life! Yet it takes courage of a high order and determination rare in these days, and a sea-skill born of long experience; and the ability to suffer much, and find contentment and companionship in one's own mind, With these words Alan Villiers introduces the story of a young American who went cruising all round the world in a 32-foot auxiliary ketch. -------'Another worthy addition to Mariners library and easily one of the best. Nothing daunted this young American, and practically everything happened at one time or another. He dad a fire on board, bad leaks several times, he lost his dog over the side in one gale, and half his mainmast in another, came perilously near stranding on several occasions and negotiated the Red Sea on an 88-year-old chart'. --Yachting Monthly</p>
