Arthur Robbins sailed the world with the Merchant Navy and the Royal Navy for a total of 26 years before settling down, as he thought, to enjoy his later years at home in England with his beloved wife Janet and their family. When she died unexpectedly in 1989 soon after her 50th birthday, everything changed. Arthur sought solace by returning to the sea, and over the 20 years that followed he sailed around the world twice in his 33ft yacht Aquarius (he had already done the circumnavigation once with the Merchant Navy), taking his lifetime total of countries and territories visited to 114. This book tells his remarkable story in colourful detail.
