Sir Peter Blake by Alan Sefton
Sir Peter Blake was the outstanding yachtsman of his time. During his 30 year sailing career he won every significant blue-water race on the planet including The Americas Cup and the Whitbread Round the World Race, and slashed the record for the fastest non-stop circumnavigation of the world under sail. Alan Sefton traces Blake's extraordinary life, from the small boy crazy about the sea, to the rigours of ocean racing, to the decision to devote his life to saving the world's oceans and finally to his tragic death on the Amazon River.
