C-SPAN2’s Book TV usually doesn’t feature much in the way of travel writing, but one program this weekend comes close. The channel will broadcast a Men’s Book Club of New York City discussion of Dallas Murphy’s “Rounding the Horn.” The book chronicles the history of Cape Horn and the historic voyages around it. According to the network’s Web site, “The author explains to book club members that he sailed to Cape Horn from Argentina and details the various dangers he faced along the way.”
