Solitary Journey by Charles Violet-No: 45 in the Mariners Library.
After crossing the Atlantic, Charles Violet—with very meager resources—set off alone on the tiny 20-foot yawl, Nova Espero. This memoir details his ambition to explore the Mediterranean. Violet navigates the French inland waterways before cruising the Mediterranean, facing various crises, including severe food poisoning and a terrifying bout of temporary blindness while single-handed. His journey is a testament to the fact that vast travel is possible even on a small budget and in a tiny boat.
