Here’s a good read. German Jew escapes Nazis in the mid ‘30s, goes to Japan for several years, then things get bad there so he runs from there to Philippines and gets caught up in the Japanese invasion. He decides to escape via small sailboat to Australia. Read about it on gCaptain forum discussing voyages in small boats. Guy kept a log book and diary and wrote the book after the war. Lots of sailboat details but still a great read. True story, free download.
