Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

Conor O'Brien made history in 1925 when he returned to Ireland after sailing around Cape Horn in a small boat. Here, using the remarkable photographic archive collected by Gary MacMahon, and O'Brien's drawings, writings and letters, Judith Hill records his eventful life and offers an insight into the man and his circumstances.

Includes bibliographical references (pages 122-123) and index.
