    Moitessier's autobiography and his best (and final) book
  

*by M***Y on Reviewed in the United States on April 17, 2018*

Moitessier's autobiography and his best (and final) book. Particularly interesting info on French Indochina during and after WW2.  An adventurous and driven man of great character, but he was clearly extremely self-absorbed, selfish and treated his women and children poorly.

    About Half a Good Book . . .
  

*by B***A on Reviewed in the United States on May 30, 2000*

This was my first Bernard Moitessier book.  I picked it up after reading "Godforsaken Sea" by Derek Lundy.  Lundy referred to Moitessier several times through the book as the father of single-hand sailboat  racing.The book was not at all what I expected, about solo long-distance  blue water racing, but I enjoyed the first half about Moitessier's  childhood in Indochina, how he came to love the sea and set out to follow  his dreams.  It was an account of the history of Indochina that I found  facsinating, told through the eyes of an adolescent that loved that part of  the world.  Moitessier can be an excellent writer.Unfortunately, the  second half of the book turned into a self-absorbed, preachy lecture about  his trying to "find himself."  What was forgivable wanderlust and  adolescent idealism in a teen and twenty-year-old, turned into a sad tale  of a middle-aged guy who could never grow up.  He tried to legitimize his  behavior as his attempt to save the world from war and poverty (from  Tahiti, mind you).  On several occasions I felt like saying "Get a  life!"I probably will read Moitessier's classic, "The Long  Way."  I hope that it is as good as he says it is in "Tamata and  the Alliance!"

Like new book and dust cover.  Delivery was a little slow, but considering the condition of the book it was well worth waiting for.
