Antidote for Mid Life Crises Well, it won't really solve your mid-life crisis, unless it inspires you to do something just as crazy. Her father must be one interesting guy, pushing his daughter into single-handing the world with so little sailing experience. She talks about him a lot, and his adventures sound like they're worth gathering up into book form.
I keep buying it for my friends. 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.
I agree with the rest, an excellent travel memoir. Tania's unpretentious story is fun, inspirational, and nail-biting. It's nice to have an author open up the way Tania does about herself, her family, and relationships; strengths and fears.
A"must read"for any true sailor. I have read this book twice now & can only say I fall in love with Tania & all her friends each time I read it.If only we could all enter adult hood this way.
