Product Description
Over the course of a 30-year sailing career, Sir Peter Blake (1948- 2001) won every significant blue-water race on the planet and slashed the record for the fastest non-stop circumnavigation of the world under sail. In this biography, sports writer Sefton traces the events of Blake's life from childhood through his racing career and his later environmental activities. It concludes with a description of his final journey on the Amazon River, which ended tragically when he was shot and killed by pirates.
