True Spirit: The True Story of a 16-Year-Old Australian Who Sailed Solo, Nonstop, and Unassisted Around the World

The True Spirit of Jessica Watson is an inspiring true story of a young Australian teenager who set out to sail solo around the world, defying all odds and achieving her dream against all expectations.

This book tells the story of Jessica's epic voyage in her own words, detailing the gale-force winds, mountainous waves, hazardous icebergs, and extreme loneliness she faced on her vast sea journey with no land in sight and no help close at hand.

Despite colliding with a 63,000-ton freighter just eight months before embarking on her voyage, Jessica refused to give up on her dream and continued to push forward with determination and grit.

The book is an inspiring testament to the power of risk, guts, and achievement, proving that we all have the ability to live our dreams no matter how big or small.
