Voyaging The Pacific: In Search Of The South

In 1997 Miles Horden sailed alone in a 28-foot sloop across the Southern Ocean from New Zealand to Patagonia and back - a voyage of 13,000 nautical miles across the largest uninterrupted stretch of water on earth, a region of icebergs, gales and high seas. His visits places such as the channels and fjords of Patagonia, one of the last uncharted areas of the world.

In this book he conjures up the experience of the eighteen month journey so vividly that the reader can feel the motion of the boat on the vast ocean and enter into the lone sailor's state of mind.
