The story of an indefatigable adventurer and builder.
I know the author Amyr Klink personally and I am awed by his genius and his adventures. This book is a fine reminder of his work.

Muito Obrigado Amyr!
Amyr ---I really enjoyed reading "Endless Sea".It was a pleasure to be with you again, through the words in your book.Thanks for translating your story to English.Having the opportunity to sail ParatiI while in Ilha Bela kind of gave me the feeling like I was on your adventure with you.Grateful we had 30C weather while in Ilha Bela.How you kept from freezing to death during your quest is an amazing feat on it's own right.I'm going to read "Between Two Poles" now.Muito Obrigado!

Good Book
This book was good, with a good story line but it became boring in areas. I was kind of glad when I got to the end, alot of the story seemed to be endless telling or repeating the same day after day after day stuff. But over all it was a pretty good book.

Fantastic book
I have read all of Amyr's books in Portuguese and have found all to be captivating. Adventures like his are hard to find in this modern day where it seems like everything has already been explored and one can practically buy his way up Everest.An additional surprise to many will be that, much as Shackleton's Antarctic adventure is used in business planning, team building, etc., Amyr's books are bursting with practical applications for business and life in general.If you love adventure, you will love this book.

Sailing in the Ice
Very good story with lots of technical stuff explained for non-sailors. We met Mr. Klink on a cruise to Anarctica aboard the Norgenorge in Feb/March 2008. He is a humble man with a sense of humor. The book reflects his likeable personality and perservance. It also demonstrates his love of Anarctica, especially South Georgia. The wonder of this place simply has to be experienced.

Nice story, worth the read
Nice story. Not as exciting as many sailing accounts that I have read; however one wonders if many of them are prone to exaggeration (e.g. Tristan Jones).Still very interesting account of his journey.
