TRUE SPIRIT covers everything that readers want to know: the planning, theitinerary, what she did to prepare and how her parents came to terms with herdecision; what she thought about as she sailed, what she read, what she ate and howshe lived in that tiny ten-metre boat; how she managed not seeing anyone for monthsat a time, the elements and the inevitable technical problems; how Jessica actually feltas she tackled perilous waters alone and how the experience changed her life. This is the book that will answer many of the questions raised by the followers ofJessica's blog as well as those who have seen her on television, heard her on the radio,or read about her amazing adventures in the papers and magazines.
