Tristan Jones
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Tristan Jones (May 8, 1924? - June 21, 1995) was an author and mariner who wrote numerous books and articles, many in the first person, about sailing. Since his stories tended to be a combination of both fact and fiction in the tradition of Welsh story tellers, many of the details of his early life are unknown.
[edit] Trivia
Mr. Jones was named for the island of Tristan da Cunha because his parents were sailing near it when his mother entered labor.
