5.0 out of 5 stars I keep buying it for my friends., 8 April 1999
By A Customer
The original edition, which included pictures of the voyage, was better. Even so, this is a fantastic and inspiring book about an incredible adventure. I first read it a year ago and, ever since, have been buying it for friends in the hope that it will make as much difference to their outlook as it did to mine.

5.0 out of 5 stars A sailing must read!, 21 Feb 1997
By A Customer
Absolutely wonderful book, not only did this young lady have to stuggle with growing up, but with the riggers of learning how to sail. A true voyage of self discovery seen through the eyes of innocence and wonder. Inspiring.
