Book Reviews of The Strange Last Voyage of Donald Crowhurst
Book Review: A fine study of madness and a great see story to boot
Summary: 4 Stars
This is a classic study of a psychologically broken man drawn into fraud by his emotional needs. It's also a sea story and a detective story in one. Highly recommended for anyone who appreciates yachting, human weakness, and mysterious happenings.
