About

In the great tradition of British adventurers, David Pyle decided to undertake the longest open boat voyage ever - from England to Australia - with only one crew member.

In the event his route took him part of the way overland (with the crew and the boat shipped on a lorry) to the point where the ancient riverway of the Tigris became navigable, and Hermes couldn't make the whole way on her own. But the whole trip was a remarkable achievement and the two sailors had some fantastic experiences.

Illustrated with monochrome images.
