More About the Author
Product Description
Product Description
In 1980, four years after his Brendan Voyage, Tim Severin set out to test another legend. With a crew which included eight Omani seamen, and a ship made from Malabar timbers held together with coconut rope and painted with fish oil and sugar, he aimed to recreate the Seven Voyages of Sindbad, from Oman to China, and to find out whatever truth there may have been in the mythical tales of the "Arabian Nights". This is Severin's account of the adventure.

as in all his seagoing books, fiction and non-fiction, the people and boats are real, and you can taste the windblown seawater.

interesting, too much detail
29 Sep 2011
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
This is an interesting book if you like the topic. As a follower of Tim Severin, this book is not one of the best, since it has too many details on the preparations, bureaucratic procedures, etc, and not so much on the ship itself. Much less any technical details on the ship or its handling.
