Around the World in 20 Days by Bertrand Piccard
In this narrative, adventurers Bertrand Piccard and Brian Jones, the pilots of the Breitling Orbiter 3 balloon, recount their record-breaking, first-ever-around-the-world balloon flight in March 1999.
BERTRAND PICCARD is a medical doctor specializing in psychiatry. He comes from a family of scientific explorers: his grandfather was the first man to reach the stratosphere in a balloon, while his father dove to the deepest part of the ocean in a bathyscaphe. He lives in Lausanne, Switzerland.
BRIAN JONES spent thirteen years with England?s Royal Air Force and is now the United Kingdom?s chief flying instructor. He was the flight?s project manager before becoming a pilot of the balloon. He lives in Wiltshire, England.
