SynopsisThe Long Way is Bernard Moitessier's own incredible story of his participation in the first Golden Globe Race, a solo, non-stop circumnavigation rounding the three great Capes of Good Hope, Leeuwin, and the Horn. For seven months, the veteran seafarer battled storms, doldrums, gear-failures, knock-downs, as well as overwhelming fatigue and loneliness. Then, nearing the finish, Moitessier pulled out of the race and sailed on for another three months before ending his 37,455-mile journey in Tahiti. Not once had he touched land., This work provides construction students and professionals with a practical, usable guide to the basic principles surrounding construction law. It illustrates the concepts and rules; and advises on how to avoid legal disputes, and increase the likelihood of success when disputes do arise.
