As a person with no knowledge of sailing at the time I read this book I loved the whole process of learning about her special craft. A description of being becalmed and out of all contact with others is one that has stayed with me and one I would have loved to share

She survived the trip of a lifetime and achieved her goal and dream because she was PREPARED! Even with all that preparation she faced unbelievable challenges emotionally and mentally and hit her target. An inspiration in courageous tenacity.

Inspiring and a bit scary at times. I can't imagine the frightening situation of being alone, in weather so rough, your boat is not just blown flat, but rolled 360 degrees and you end up overboard.

I read this way back in 1990.
It was quite an inspirational read.
