This book is a wonderfully moving and insightful account covering the author's modest beginnings in ocean racing to his later triumphs in his beloved Moonshine. He tells of his first transatlantic crossing in 1970 when he sailed Crazy Jane from Baregat Bay, New Jersey, to Plymouth, England. During the ensuing 15 years, Francis Stokes participated as a singlehander in many of the major ocean races of the time. From OSTAR 1976 to several Bermuda One-Two races, to his first BOC Challenge singlehanded round-the-world race in 1982, where he performed the daring rescue of Tony Lush in the Southern Indian Ocean
