<p><strong>As the first person to circumnavigate the globe alone,</strong> Captain Joshua Slocum is celebrated as the "patron saint of small-boat voyagers, navigators, and adventurers all over the world" (Joshua Slocum Society), and heralded as the penultimate example of independent marine navigation at a time when the invention of steam had nearly put an end to the Golden Age of Sail. </p><p>His timeless account, <em>Sailing Alone Around the World</em>, still coveted by sailors and thrill-seekers alike, has continued to inspire scores of lone adventurers, and challenged countless readers to change their lives since its initial publication in 1900.</p>
