“1968年初，走投无路的创业者Donald Crowhurst正试图推销自己开发的一款航海导航设备，这时他得知Sunday Times将赞助Golden Globe Race——有史以来首场单人环球帆船赛。作为一名狂热的业余帆船手，Crowhurst嗅到了营销商机，使用自己设计的未经测试的trimaran报名参赛，令全世界大为震惊。当他迅速取得领先，并通过无线电报告远超那些经验丰富竞争对手的坐标位置时，人们的震惊很快变成了惊叹。然而在1969年7月10日，也就是大约八个……”

还有第三部，结局稍微有点不同，对于那些动不动就把单打独斗浪漫化的极客们来说，它或许能当个警示牌：《唐纳德·克劳赫斯特的诡异终航》（The Strange Last Voyage of Donald Crowhurst，http://www.amazon.com/Strange-Last-Voyage-Donald-Crowhurst/d...）
And a third, with a slightly different ending, that may serve as a signpost to geeks with a predilection to romanticize working alone: The Strange Last Voyage of Donald Crowhurst (http://www.amazon.com/Strange-Last-Voyage-Donald-Crowhurst/d...)
我高中时读过《唐纳德·克劳赫斯特的诡异终航》（The Strange Last Voyage of Donald Crowhurst），也很推荐这本。
I read The Strange Last Voyage of Donald Crowhurst in high school, and can recommend that as well.
Bernard Moitessier 的《漫长的航行》（The Long Way）和《唐纳德·克劳赫斯特的诡异终航》（The Strange Last Voyage of Donald Crowhurst），这两本书我真是推荐得不能再推荐了。两本书讲的都是《星期日泰晤士报》金球环球帆船赛里，本可以夺冠但最终没赢的两位选手，原因相当耐人寻味且各不相同。http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sunday_Times_Golden_Globe_Race…
I cannot recommend 'The Long Way' by Bernard Moitessier & 'The Strange Last Voyage of Donald Crowhurst' highly enough. Both books cover how 2 contestants in the Sunday Times Golden Globe Race could have won but did not, for rather interesting/different reasons. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sunday_Times_Golden_Globe_Race…
如果你对史诗级翻车的故事感兴趣——去读读 Donald Crowhurst 的故事吧（书名叫《唐纳德·克劳赫斯特的诡异终航》，网上也有相关纪录片）。为了不剧透太多很难细说，但基本上，20世纪中叶赞助了一场声势浩大的帆船比赛，想看看谁能……
If you're interested in a book about massive failure - read the story of Donald Crowhurst (The Strange Last Voyage of Donald Crowhurst is the book, there is also a documentary out there). It's hard to tell much without spoiling it, but basically, a highly publicized sailing competition was sponsored in the mid 20th century to see who…
……（书的前半部分）。简而言之，大自然在顺境时丰富多样化，是为了囤积度过逆境的韧性。刚看了几章，随时等那种希望感冒出来……《唐纳德·克劳赫斯特的诡异终航》——这个故事讲的是首届单人无协助环球帆船赛，以及那位命丧海上的参赛选手。他的故事非常诡异——一部带有一点精神疾患色彩的反英雄悲剧。作者……
…(the first part of the book). In short nature diversifies in good times, to stock resilience for weathering the bad times. Just a few chapters in, waiting for that hope to kick in any minute... "The Strange Last Voyage of Donald Crowhurst" - This story is about the first round-the-world solo yacht race, and the one contestant who died at sea. His story is really strange - an anti-hero tragedy with a touch of mental illness. The author…
