Both times Tzu Hang, a 46-foot ketch built in Hong Kong, was turned right over and dismasted, almost every scrap of rigging being lost. Both times she made port under an improvised jury-rig. The first part of the voyage from Sydney was deceptively uneventful. The reader enjoys a pleasant cruise, getting to know the ship and her crew, while Pwe, the Siamese cat, stalks albatrosses." - from dust-jacket blurb.

"It is the struggle of these three indomitable sailors for survival and their extraordinary resource . . . that makes their taut journal unique among books of maritime adventure. . . . Tzu Hang and her crew add up not only to survival but to a tale full of sound and fury told by an intrepid but eminently sane survivor" (Times (London) Literary Supplement).
