A Pirate Looks at Fifty by Jimmy Buffett

A Pirate Looks at Fifty by Jimmy Buffett

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER .Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inducteeJimmy Buffettoffers hisphilosophy on life and how to live it, "like sitting with Buffett at a beachside bar, listening to him spin tales" (Time).

"Buffett took his family on a three-week trek around the Caribbean. . . . His colorful travelogue is interspersed with memoirs of his youth and music career-both of which revolve around his continuing search for the perfect fishing spot."-USA Today

For Parrotheads, armchair adventurers, and anyone who appreciates a good yarn and a hearty laugh, here is the ultimate backstage pass. You'll read the kind of stories Jimmy usually reserves for his closest friends and you'll see a wonderful, wacky life through the eyes of the man who's lived it.

Jimmy takes us from the legendary pirate coves of the Florida Keys to the ruins of ancient Cartegena. Along the way, we hear a tale or two of how he got his start in New Orleans, how he discovered his passion for flying planes, and how he almost died in a watery crash in Nantucket harbor. We follow Jimmy to jungle outposts in Costa Rica and on a meandering trip down the Amazon, through hair-raising negotiations with gun-toting customsofficials and a three-year-old aspiring co-pilot. And he is the inimitable Jimmy Buffett through it all.
