When a young schoolteacher acquires a small Mirror dinghy for a modest sum, he envisions nothing more ambitious than a few gentle outings on a nearby canal. Yet what begins as a whimsical notion quickly transforms into an epic 5,000-mile voyage from North Wales to the Black Sea, navigating rivers, canals, and open seas in a vessel barely fit for a pond.
This is travel writing at its most charming and unpretentious—a tale of mishaps, serendipitous encounters, and the peculiar magic that unfolds when one simply refuses to turn back. From the English countryside to the Mediterranean, readers are swept along on an adventure that proves the best journeys are often the least planned, undertaken in the least suitable craft, by the most endearingly naive navigator.
