Author Name:
Jessica Watson
Sixteen-year-old Jessica Watson became Australia’s sweetheart after she sailed solo around the world. True Spirit is her very personal account of this inspirational voyage.
Jessica’s record-breaking voyage began in October 2009 and ended in May 2010. In True Spirit, she details her preparation for her journey, and her battle with sleep deprivation, mountainous seas, gale-force winds, icebergs and other natural hazards after she'd set sail. She also tells of her spectacular homecoming, where thousands cheered her on.
This is an amazing story that only fellow Australian solo sailors, like Jesse Martin and Kay Cottee, could imagine. It’s exhilarating, extraordinary, motivating and not to be missed.
