The complete autobiography of the great adventurer Sir Francis Chichester, the first and fastest man to singlehandedly circumnavigate the globeAged 18 and with a taste for adventure, Francis Chichester emigrated to New Zealand with ten pounds in his pocket. He tried his hand at a number of illfated careersa boxer, shepherd, lumberjack, and gold prospector, to name a fewbefore returning to England. Having qualified as a pilot, in 1929 he embarked on his most famous solo flight in the de Havilland Gipsy Moth from England to Australia. Shortly afterward, he survived a neardeath catastrophe in an attempt to fly solo around the world. Turning to sailing, he won the first singlehanded transatlantic yacht race in Gipsy Moth III, despite having been diagnosed with cancer two years previously. In 1967, he became the first person to sail around the world solo from west to east via the great capes. Here, his entire lifeincluding his greatest failures and successesare told by the man who experienced it all firsthand. A foreword from his son, Giles Chichester, is also included.
