Now with a brand new foreword from
New York Times
bestselling author Jeffrey Zaslow.
FIRST YOU HAVE TO ROW A LITTLE BOAT
first hit shelves in the mid 1990s and has been inspiring readers ever since. Written by a grown man looking back on his childhood, it reflects on what learning to sail taught him about life: making choices, adapting to change, and becoming his own person. The book is filled with the spiritual wisdom and thought-provoking discoveries that marked such books as
Walden
,
The Prophet
, and
Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance
. For nearly twenty years, it has enchanted and endeared sailors and non-sailors alike, but foremost, anyone who seeks large truths in small things. This refurbished edition will find a place in the hearts of a whole new generation of readers.
