ISBN: 9781509834433 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych.

Where he led, others followed: but when he triumphed, he at once sought a new and greater challenge. This is a book about such a challenge. With the feasibility of long-distance voyages proven beyond doubt - not least by his own remarkable...

ISBN: 9781509834440 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 184 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. A brave man in a small boat alone on a big sea . . . Sir Francis Chichester was a courageous explorer and gifted navigator. Six years before his epic solo voyage around the world in Gipsy Moth IV, so vividly captured in Gipsy Moth Circles the World, and at the age of 59, Chichester took part in the 1960 Singlehanded Transatlantic Race in Gipsy Moth III. During the forty days the voyage took, Chichester kept a diary in which he shared his fears and moments of exhilaration. The result is both a practical tale about Gipsy Moth III's sailing victory and a day-by-day sharing of adventure by her...

Atlantic Adventure
ISBN: 9781509834457 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 104 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In June 1962 Francis Chichester set out from Plymouth once again to cross the Atlantic single-handed in his 13-ton yacht, Gipsy Moth III, in an attempt to beat the 40-day record he set up himself in 1960. He succeeded, and knocked nearly a week off his previous time. Chichester also made history on his voyage by keeping in daily contact with Britain by means of a small battery-operated radio-telephone which enabled The Guardian, the sponsors of the voyage, to publish daily extracts from his log. Edited by The Guardian’s Yachting Editor, J. R. L. Anderson, this book, Chichester’s own...
