Ken Medernach Releases for publication his new book of sailing and “water based” adventure in On the High Seas at Lulu.com
RALEIGH, NC—AUGUST 17, 2007— Ken Medernach released the publication of On the High Seas in conjunction with Lulu (www.lulu.com), the world’s fastest-growing provider of print-on-demand books.
On the High Seas is a collection of short stories based on true life experiences involving the author’s life on the water. The book chronicles the adventures of a young boy who accepts a challenge from his Dad, continues on to a “Tom Sawyer” like raft trip down the rain swollen Altamaha River in South Georgia and culminates with a day sail that almost turns catastrophic.
Ken Medernach wrote On the High Seas to inspire young people to seek their dreams, but only after they have adequately prepared themselves for the task. The first story in the book illustrates that careful preparation and training help and is critical to the successful accomplishment of one’s goals. The second story illustrates that even though the participants were well trained, the lack of adequate preparation brought them in close proximity with calamity. In the final episode two men embrace haphazard and “devil-may-care” attitudes which, without their prior experiences, could have had much more serious consequences.
This small book in its own right inspires, encourages and demonstrates by true life experiences that preparation, training and caution/respect are the better part of valor. A life so lived will not diminish the spirit of adventure and will continue to impart important lessons that will lead to a well-rounded and fulfilling life.
On the High Seas is available for purchase at www.lulu.com, a marketplace filled with other unique and wonderful books.
