Riassunto

Worse Things Happen at Sea is the long awaited follow up to Jake Kavanagh's hugely popular Ups and Downs of a Lockkeeper. This time turning his humorous eye to the scrapes people get into when let loose on open water, Jake has us chuckling, blushing and recognising ourselves or fellow crew coming unstuck in the maritime mayhem he highlights with his witty pen and captures so admirably with his hilarious illustrations. A great read for the armchair sailor - but you may decide that the armchair is the safest place to stay! 'Had me laughing out loud on many occasions.' Motor Boats Monthly 'A great read, and thoroughly recommended.' World Cruising Club

Recensione:

'This collection of collisions and other mishaps from Jake Kavanagh is a cut above the norm. The diversity of Jake's own career on the water is reflected in this funny, sometimes embarrassing collection of man's folly afloat A rather superior loo-book!' --Classic Boat (January 2007)

L'autore:

Jake Kavanagh was born into a boating family and for many years lived by the Thames at Marlow. After a variety of jobs the River eventually drew him back; Jake joined the Thames Water Authority as a lock-keeper, working the locks around Windsor for many years. Jake, well known as a boating cartoonist and freelance boating writer, is also the author of Ups and Downs of a Lockkeeper, also published by Adlard Coles Nautical.
