In January 1969aboard his home-built wooden boat SuhailiRobin Knox-Johnston became the first person ever to sail solonon-stop around the world.Twenty-five years laterSir Robin again completed a record-breaking circumnavigationco-skippering Enza with Kiwi yachting legend Sir Peter Blake.His place in sailing's pantheon of greats was assured. Thenafter the tragic death of his wife SueSir Robin decided he would try gain.In October 2006at the age of sixty-seven - when most people are settling into a well-earned retirement - Sir Robin embarked on another gruelling single-handed race around the world.Compared to his rivalshe lacked recent experience and a large shore-based support team. There were many who believed that this time he might have bitten off more than he could chew. Thenearly onit looked like their worst fears might be realized.Within days of setting offnear-hurricane-strengthstorms in the Bay of Biscay capsized his 60-foot yacht SagaInsurance. But it wasn't just Sir Robin who suffered.Three-quarters of the entire fleet had to run for shelter.When they re-emergedall faced months of hardship and intensity ahead. 'Force of Nature' is Sir Robin's first-hand account of hisextraordinary return to the ultra-competitivepunishing world of single-handed offshore racing.It turned out to be a very different journey from the one he undertook aboard Suhailiyet that experience remains a touchstone throughoutthis story. It's a story of courage ingenuity and resilience played out against the world's oceans.But most of all it's a powerful reminder that age is nothing but a number; no barrier to realizing one's dreams.

It led directly to the colonization of America by Europeans something that has had an enormous impact on the modern world. But who was Columbus How did a relatively poor Genoese seaman persuade the monarchs of Spain one of Europe's mightiest nations to back a scheme based on a totally inaccurate assessment of the size of the world The distinguished navigator Robin Knox-Johnston therefore decided to follow his course. An astrolabe replaced the sextant and even the compass on his boat "Suhaili" had its corrector magnets removed before the voyage started. This is an account of the voyage. Quantity Available: 1.
