The title of Rod Heikell’s latest writing only hints at this book’s content and coverage. Five years ago the author and his wife, Lu, set out on a circumnavigation and the opening part of The Trade Wind Foodie is an account of the successive westbound passages first to the Caribbean and then on through the Panama Canal to the Pacific, Australia and the Indian Ocean. There’s plenty of practical advice as well as entertaining asides in Rod’s inimitable style on the incidents that contributed to the adventure. Throughout, however, there is a slant towards provisioning, cooking on board and discovering food and restaurants at the numerous landfalls.
