Welcome to Sailing Faith: The Long Way Home; I hope it helps you live the dream. For a photo-essay, navigate through the destinations page. For excerpts, visit here.

I encourage you to buy the book and above all--Enjoy!

Thank-you.

In 2003, my wife, two teenage daughters, five-year-old son and I moved aboard a 56' sailboat to make a two-year circumnavigation of the world. In 2008, four and a half years later, after traveling 36,000 nautical miles, visiting 38 countries, and entering into numerous relationships with people in those countries, we returned.

Moving through life, it seems I learn one thing with consistency—that I'm not as smart as I used to be.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Not many books create a relationship akin to friendship between the reader and author by the end of a book. Sailing Faith, however, did.

Granger has a writing style that is unlike anything I’ve ever read. Most of the time I was in awe of his humility as he downplayed the wisdom with which it would take to make a trip like this, and the bravery of him and his wife to choose to raise their three children in this sort of environment (one young boy and two teenage girls)." [excerpts]

--Jasmine Wilson, The Englewood Review of Books, [Vol. 3, #23]
