Re: What are you reading? Racing Through Paradise, A Pacific Passage: William Buckley, JR.
Little, Brown & Co., 1987
"This book in no way suggests typical yacht racing.
WFB's exhuberent superfluous didactic verbosity reveals his penchant for less used words. His writing digresses from the first sentence in a paragraph. His paragraphs digress from the announced chapter heading.
However, his writing is intimate conversational about his life and varied interests both in and outside of yachting.
If you enjoyed his TV conversations, you will enjoy this printed visit with his great mind and clever wit."
