Wikipedia
Joshua Slocum was one of the first people to carry out a long-distance sailing voyage for pleasure, circumnavigating the world between 1895 and 1898.
Despite opinion that such a voyage was impossible and his having retired, Slocum rebuilt a derelict sloop Spray and sailed her single-handed around the world.
His book Sailing Alone Around the World is a classic adventure, and inspired many others to take to the seas.
