OverviewAt the age of 64, suffering from cancer, and sailing a 54-foot boat, he had achieved the first true solo circumnavigation, making only one stop on voyage. Born in Devon in 1901, Francis Chichester was one of life's big achievers. He left school for a wider education and found it building a fortune in New Zealand, flying solo from London to Sydney, hazarding a seaplane journey from Australia to Japan and racing typhoons off China. The Lonely Sea and the Sky is his extraordinary story.
