The national bestseller. "This brilliantly written elegy gently teaches the fundamental principles of life and how to navigate its shoals." -M. Scott Peck, MD, bestselling author of The Road Less Traveled

Now with a brand-new foreword from New York Times-bestsellingauthor Jeffrey Zaslow

First You Have to Row a Little Boat first hit shelves in the mid-1990s and has been inspiring readers ever since. Written by a grown man looking back on his childhood, it reflects on what learning to sail taught him about life: making choices, adapting to change, and becoming his own person. The book is filled with the spiritual wisdom and thought-provoking discoveries that marked such books as Walden, The Prophet, and Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance. For nearly twenty years, it has enchanted and endeared sailors and non-sailors alike, but foremost, anyone who seeks large truths in small things. This refurbished edition will find a place in the hearts of a whole new generation of readers.

"What a wonderful book it is! Pure joy." -Walter Cronkite

"Even without knowing a lot about sailing, I was charmed by its wisdom and passion." -Harold S. Kushner, bestselling author of When Bad Things Happen to Good People

"Bode uses his great love of sailing as a metaphor for the tides of life ... Determinedly inspirational, this book will appeal to admirers of Robert Fulghum." -Publishers Weekly (starred review)
