Covers ships from 5000BC to 1935AD, from the early ships of the River Nile and the eastern Mediterranean, through the world of sea and sail, to the first steamships. Van Loon's conclusion is that, in spite of the romance of the sea, until the 20th century, a sailor's life was "nothing but one unending and gruelling record of misery and pain, and hunger and thirst, and bodily abuse, a plain slice of hell on earth". He salutes those 'men of vision' who, in spite of the dangers and discomforts at sea, were driven by their restless imagination to pursue distant horizons.

Working the night shift as a temp in a high-rise cubicle, Erik Orton knew something had to change. He felt the responsibility of providing for his wife and their five children--the youngest with Down syndrome--but craved a life that offered more than just surviving. Watching the sailboats on the Hudson River during his sunset dinner breaks, Erik dared to dream. What would it be like to leave the hustle of the city and instead spend a year on a sailboat, somewhere beautiful, as a family? Despite having no sailing experience, his wife Emily's phobia of deep water, and already stretching every dollar to pay rent and buy groceries, the family of seven turned their excuses into reasons and their fears into motivation. Sure, they would miss their friends, they could go broke, they could get injured or die. Worst of all, they could humiliate themselves by trying something audacious and failing. But the little time they still had together as a family, before their oldest daughter left for college, was drifting away. The Ortons cast off the life they knew to begin an uncertain journey of 5,000 miles between New York City and the Caribbean, ultimately arriving at a new place within themselves. A portrait of a captivating and resilient family and a celebration of the courage it takes to head for something over the horizon, this is a deeply compelling story--told alternately by Erik and Emily--for all those who dream of leaving routine in their wake.
