Description: In short this is an accounting of a sailing trip from Japan to Ireland. The story starts with the year the Smeetons spent in Japan, after a long voyage in the Tzu Hang from South Africa. They wintered in the northern island of Hokkaido then sailed for the Aleutians which form a bridge between Asia and America. Eventually, they sail through the Panama Canal, up the east coast of North America and to Ireland. The Misty Islands is clearly a book of the sea and of adventure; it is also a tale of people, places and living creatures in some of the least known parts of the world. This book was written in the cabin of the Tzu Hang, partly during a winter spent in Southern Ireland after the voyage it describes.
