Adventure and love
Desperate Voyage kept me involved in the story line from beginning to end. In fact if John didn't hurry up and either become shipwrecked or rescued I don't know what I would do! Johns adventure began as a young man desperate to be rejoined with his Australian bride. With limited resources and a desire the size of the ocean he is about to sail, the story builds as the young amateur sets sail, makes mistakes, learns from the mistakes and with dogged determination presses on toward Australia.
What love. What a driven force to see his bride. What determination! I was challenged with the depth of his love for his bride that time, distance, water, weather or forces of nature would not deter John from his voyage.
I wholeheartedly recommend this exciting book.
