First You Have to Row a Little Boat

Trade Paperback

Reflections on Life & Living

FIRST YOU HAVE TO ROW A LITTLE BOAT first hit shelves in the mid 1990s and has been inspiring readers ever since. Written by a grown man looking back on his childhood, it reflects on what learning to sail taught him about life: making choices, adapting to change and becoming his own person.

The book is filled with the spiritual wisdom and thought-provoking discoveries that marked such books as Walden, The Prophet and Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance.

For nearly twenty years, it has enchanted and endeared sailors and non-sailors alike, but foremost, anyone who seeks large truths in small things. This refurbished edition will find a place in the hearts of a whole new generation of readers.
