Anyone read: A voyage for madmen + the last strange voyage of don C.?

finished 'voyage for madmen' ...... really fills in the gaps well. for example, it says that analysis of crowhursts final log entries showed that he sat & wrote into his log for 30 hours straight. he literally went off the deep end before jumping overboard. after reading albert einsteins book 'theory of relativity' i think it was... crowhurst determined that he could transform himself from this world into another "plane" of existence.

if you rent the dvd... be sure to watch the special feature section.

I absolutely loved Strange Last Voyage.

The way it veers off near the end and focuses almost totally on Crowhurst's ramblings gives the reader a taste of his descent.

And it goes into much more detail than the film with regards to how unprepared Crowhurst actually was. I recall a description of unconnected wires and boxes piled up in the ship's cabin right before the launch to sea.

Gripping.




The sea was angry that day, my friends. Like an old man trying to send back soup in a deli.
