The Kon-Tiki Man

Thor Heyerdahl : the Story of a Great Adventurer
Twenty years had passed since Thor Heyerdahl's epic voyage across the Pacific to the islands of the South Seas in that legendary raft, the Kon-Tiki.
Now he embarked on a still more hazardous adventure: an attempt to conquer the ferocious winds and waves of the Atlantic in a boat he called his 'paper ship', whose hull consisted of nothing more substantial than papyrus reeds. Narrated by Christopher Railing.
