A classic, 'Sailing' is '...quite simply the funniest book I have ever read' -- William F. Buckley Jr. From ahoy -- 'The first in a series of four-letter words commonly exchanged by skippers as their boats approach each other' -- to zephyr -- 'A warm, pleasant breeze named after the mythical Greek god of wishful thinking, false hopes, and unreliable forecasts' -- it brings new meaning to the things said at sea. Paperback, 295 pages. Workman.
