    Thanks Greg,
    Conrad's writing gets my sweaty skin salt encrusted, hosed down and blown dry while I claw my way across the heaving deck. His prose plunges and my pulse pounds  in rhythm with the ships throbbing  heart: His characters, so clearly drawn that if one were to walk into my room, I would recognize him in an instant.
    Great read. -

    Before reading chapter 4 THE ELEMENTS it is recommended that Joseph Conrad's TYPHOON be read first. Here is a link to TYPHOON:

    P.S. Chapter 3 THE TOOL is most interesting and could very well apply to the sextant as to an airplane or boat.
