Glory B! - 1000 Miles of Mishaps and Miracles

It started out as a summer vacation and turned into the adventure of a lifetime. At the age of seventy, when it looked like life was over, Dave Graham put everything he owned in storage and went in search of a dream he thought was no longer within reach. But what if it wasn't? Here is how one man managed to climb out of retirement, buy the boat of their dreams, and take it up through the Inside Passage-past thousands of islands-without modern navigational aids. All the way to Alaska.

About the author

Having traveled twice around the world during his Navy years, Dave Graham had a love for the sea that he could see stretching all the way back to his Danish ancestors. He had owned several boats-not counting the small stuff like dinghies or canoes that he built, himself-throughout his career as an educator and work in the behavioral sciences for troubled youth. When the near-forgotten dream of making a long voyage in a deep water sailboat pulled him out of retirement, he realized he still had resources inside that he had never tapped into. That journey led to things much bigger than he dreamed.
