The incredible story of an eighty-eight year old grandmother who sailed eight thousand miles in a 26ft gaff cutter.
Her voyage not only grabbed headlines , but repaired a disappointment at an early age when her father, Commander Robert Graham, promised that they would make the crossing together in the family boat, but eventually decided to go alone. (His book of that voyage 'Rough Passage' is now out of print).
A remarkable book by a remarkable woman.
