He had neither the boat nor the skills to tackle such a journey, but he’d staked his home, his business, and his pride on winning. Crowhurst appeared to make remarkable progress, but in reality never left the Atlantic. His logs recorded both his fabricated readings and his descent into psychosis. Eight months after departure, his empty boat was found drifting.

A powerful story of survival in extremes, conveying with brutal honesty the physical and psychological horrors of three days spent in appalling pain, dehydrated and hungry, and haunted by the thought that he would find base camp abandoned]]> 2018-07-31 19:35:24 UTC https://padlet.com/brune_labollita/pi6gc0rwpxw0/wish/271585426 brune_labollita https://padlet.com/brune_labollita/pi6gc0rwpxw0/wish/271585688 Canadian astronaut Chris Hadfield does a fine job of applying the lessons of space to everyday life on earth.
