Tale of a Man in Love with the Sea: The Adventurer Published by Outskirts Press
Outskirts Press announces the latest highly anticipated adventurers and explorers autobiography from Pahoa, HI, author Herbert G. Dorsey III.
Pahoa, HI, May 29, 2011 --(PR.com)-- Outskirts Press, Inc. has published The Adventurer: The Autobiography of Herbert Grove Dorsey III by Herbert G. Dorsey III. The author's most recent book to date is a 5 x 8 paperback in the adventurers and explorers autobiography category and is available worldwide on book retailer websites such as Amazon and Barnes & Noble. The webpage at www.outskirtspress.com/TheAdventurer was launched simultaneously with the book's publication.
Herbert G. Dorsey III had adventurous episodes from early childhood to the middle of his life, some of which brought him close to death. His exposure to metaphysics at Krotona Library in Ojai instilled in him a total belief that God would protect him in his journey through life. He became a vegetarian and a pacifist at the age of seventeen. About the same time, he fell in love with sail boats and the sea. After three years of travel and adventure on land and sea, he married and settled down to family life. After five years of marriage he became divorced and once again was a free man.
An excerpt from his book:
“The sea was totally white with sea foam. I would steer standing up. As the trimaran sped along, I felt like I was skiing through ever changing hills of snow.
“By night fall, it was blowing a full gale of fifty knots. I thought, ‘What a fine mess I’ve gotten myself into this time.’
“It had all seemed so easy planning this voyage back in Berkeley. There were only a few inches of blue between Key West and Havana on the map. Out here, it was a totally different reality.”
385 pages in length, The Adventurer: The Autobiography of Herbert Grove Dorsey III is being aggressively promoted to appropriate markets with a focus on the adventurers and explorers autobiography category. With U.S. wholesale distribution through Ingram and Baker & Taylor, and pervasive online availability through Amazon, Barnes & Noble and elsewhere, The Adventurer meets consumer demand through both retail and library markets with a suggested retail price of $19.95.
Additionally, The Adventurer can be ordered by retailers or wholesalers for the maximum trade discount price set by the author in quantities of ten or more from the Outskirts Press Direct bookstore at www.outskirtspress.com/bookstore.
