Review by Nina Osier, author of Mistworld: The Matushka’s Story Continues

 This book is far more than an exciting account of theauthor's sailboat journey from Chicago to Florida's Gulf coast. Its second theme, the inner journey she takes while adjusting to life with her new husband
(and learning how to be "first mate" on a 38-foot sailing yacht!), is such a perfect match for the more
obvious one that I would hesitate to designate one as primary and the other as secondary. Along the way Ruth and Torger Silnes learn many things about their country, but Ruth learns just as many about herself.

This is a well-told story of a woman's transition from her life's first half to its second, rich in detail
and emotion. It deserves to be read. Do give it a try!
