{"product_id":"9780984399826","title":"Round The World In The Wrong Season","description":"\u003cp\u003eRound the World in the Wrong Season, by Eric T. Wiberg - Written between 1994 and 2009, is a memoir of global travel and an unfulfilled college crush. The book follows the narrator out of school and across the Pacific. At only 23 he has command of a 68-foot Burmese-teak ketch built in Scotland thrust upon him. The owner is on a voyage home to his death, and along the way they hire sailors twice the skipper's age. They makes it to New Zealand in a storm which sinks seven yachts, then spends months shearing sheep and writing a memoir. By the time the narrator makes a rendezvous with his college sweetheart (who has been teaching Thai students on the Burmese border), she seems to have all but forgotten him. This leads to a less than satisfactory denouement and puts at least one of them in the hospital. The book includes extensive photographs and hand-drawn charts and a detailed bibliography. It is over 400 pages in length, perfect bound in cloth. ericwiberg.com\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dell Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50086404292848,"sku":"9780984399826","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780984399826","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
