"A satisfying large dose of Eddie's down-to-earth
humor... along with a goodly supply of advice (some of it
actually useful!)..." - From The Foreword by Ted
Brewer
"Eddie has a glorious gift for finding humor in the
mundane, for painting cruising calamities with a bilge-flavored
brush, and for evoking word pictures that tug at the hearts
of all who are currently anchored to family, homes, and jobs
as yet another flotilla of sailors make their way south for
the season." - Good Old Boat Magazine
"De new book shell reach mon dat be some fine scerfin
get to all dem spitual pigmies what don't know."
- Capt. Frank Papy
(Frank talks funny but we think he liked the book.)
"Eddie is a very undervalued writer, observer, and
sailor. Translation: the book is good." - Dave
Martin, Cruising World's 1995 Seamanship Medal Winner
"Eddie Jones has done it again. Done what? Gone hard
aground of course, and lucky for us he has included it all
in his latest work, Hard Aground…Again. North
Carolina’s most beloved “navigationally challenged”
sailor shares his good, bad, but never ugly cruising experiences
and boating adventures in this sequel to Hard Aground with
Eddie Jones. This time Jones has added a touch of Spirituality
to the stories based on his strong Christian faith. No matter
what your religious beliefs you will find his advice sound
and inspirational. This book had me laughing from the Acknowledgements
through the final chapter." - The Ensign, United
States Power Squadron
"Eddie's book is very good. Many good points and
good advice, but the humor is what keeps me tuned in. After
owning six sailboats you would think his experience would
at least qualify him for the rank of Commodore. The story
about Dinty Moore and poaching the crabs with the ten bucks
in the aspirin bottle was too much." - Ricky on
Chuckatuck Creek
"Thank you for the copy of your new book! Great job—it
looks great! I LOVE the cover. Hey, just think what could
have happened if YOU’D been on the ark!" - Vonda
Skelton
"Looking for some good laughs and reflections on
life? Look no further....the answers are found in Hard Aground...Again
by Eddie Jones, a gifted writer and very talented story teller.
He has a way of making you think about your life and your
dreams, and how you can find them and make them come true!
Don't waste another minute, pick up a copy of this soon to
be best-seller and you won't be disappointed." -
John Riddle, reviewer for Publishers Weekly and founder
