A classic of the sail cruising genre. I purchased this Kindle edition to supplement the hard cover copy I own which lacks the original edition's photographs. The Kindle reproductions of the photos are not very high quality, so four out of five stars seems fit.Ransome's tone is droll and won't be to everyone's taste so read a few pages of the Kindle preview and you should be able to tell if it suits.

I have never been so frustrated by an Amazon purchase. This edition is essentially a photocopy of an earlier edition, but with truncated margins on every page -- consistently cutting off or cutting out text. It is therefore unreadable. Should not be for sale.

Authentic review of a man's passion: a walkabout with his sailboat Racundra. Loaded with lots of interesting facts about sailing technic, yachts and the Baltic Sea and Esthonia: a region totally unkwown for me.

Interesting descriptions of Baltic countries and their inhabitants in the 1920's. Lots to interest sailors also, however, the description of voyages is heavy on place names and requires constant reference to two poorly sized and printed maps. Perhaps Ransome relied to heavily on his logs.

I have a Penguin edition of 1956 without all the additional material of this new edition. But the basic story is the same.This is a charming narrative of a cruise in a well-built little sailboat, in waters of the Baltic countries, to places the author clearly knows and loves.Arthur Ransome later wrote a series of children's books focused on sailing. He would certainly have agreed with Kenneth Grahame's "Ratty" that ""There is nothing -- absolutely nothing -- half so much worth doing as simply messing about in boats." One might qualify that, noting that in Ransome's books, the sailing is rather more directed and purposeful - but he always communicates the sheer joy of being on the water in a craft that responds to the elements, at your direction (He was not a fan of engines of any kind - a sometimes necessary evil. Sailing was the thing.)"Racundra's First Cruise" was published in 1923. He had commissioned the building of Racundra, a thirty-foot ketch built for seaworthiness and comfort inside. With the "Ancient Mariner" - an old veteran of the days of sail in clipper ships - and "Cook" - probably the companion who was to become his second wife, but only identified by her unending task - he takes us through many sometimes tricky passages along the Baltic coast, visiting old cobblestoned towns and remote peasant villages.It is delightful to sink back into a time when the sea was still full of trading vessels under sail, though of course large and small steamers also abounded. Mentions of "during the war" refer of course to the Great War. Relics of older conflicts abound - Russian, Swedish, Latvian, Finnish, Estonian - and Ransome provides many interesting footnotes to their stories.My favorite encounter is that with the enigmatic man who lives alone, building a ship, in the forest. The ship is at first seen as "a golden hull in the shadows among those tall trees" then we see that "the upper planking was new, certainly, ruddy gold where the sun caught it, but lower down her hull was weathered"...."The keel, laid on great stones, was joined to them by moss. There was lichen upon it, and on the foot of the stern-post was a large, bright cluster of scarlet toadstools."Enjoy.

I wonder why Hollywood has not yet discovered this book: it has all the ingredients for a box-office hit - sailing in the Baltics, scenic sea- and landscapes, a romantic love affair of a British writer and the private secretary of Leon Trotsky. And the background - the Russian revolution, Estonia's struggle for independence. Rare photos illustrate the book. A must for the romantic sailor!

The story of RACUNDRA is worth reading especially for those attempting to sail or those who have sailed through the Moon Passage in Estonia. The historic descriptions of what is now Saarema, Virtsu, etc. makes wonderful reading!

Great little book - takes you back to a different, simpler, world. You don't have to be a sailor to enjoy this.
