About the Author
After an early career as a secondary school PE teacher, Dee Caffari realised that her destiny was on the water. She gave up her teaching job, completed a number of offshore races, and successfully skippered 18 amateur yachtsmen around the world in the Global Challenge Race. In the same 72ft yacht, Aviva, she completed her record-breaking circumnavigation, finishing in May 2006. She is now embarked on the Vendee Globe Race.
Review
"This book is adventure story, biography and inspiration all bound into one volume." Shetland Times (03/04/09) 'Story of the first woman to sail circumnavigate the wrong way around the world.' The Bookseller "Dee Caffari engages with the reader so her experiences become your experiences" "It's an absorbing narrative with pace and energy with a simple message: the ordinary can change and become exceptional." Saling Today (August 2009) This is a good read with daring to aplenty but also with an accessible and very human heroine who, just maybe, given the opportunity, we could see ourselves trying to emulate. Lifeboat (September 2009) '...an enjoyable and inspiring tale...' The Little Ship (Summer 2009) 'This is a truly inspiring book that follows the highs, and inevitable lows, of Dee's journey, before detailing what she has been up to sincer her records.' Boat Mart (June 2010)
