Francis caught exitement, challenge, exhilaration of his life as sailor, flyer and navigator in true Elizabethan sense, his ingenuity saved his life when instruments could not.  Rare breed of great individualists that enriched human story and his autobiography emerges as one of tHose rare books.

Coward-McCann New York 1964 Hardback good condition well-binded clean white pages with dust cover wrapped in protector.  White hardback covers show light wear.

 

He was the first lone sailor to take the east-west route of the old clipper ships. Rather than using the Suez or Panama canal shortcuts, he rounded the Cape of Good Hope at the southern tip of Africa and Cape Horn at the tip of South America.
