Pacific Lady: The First Woman to Sail Solo across the World's Largest Ocean - Outdoor Lives First edition
Sharon Sites Adams
In June 1965 Adams made history as the first woman to sail solo from the mainland US to Hawaii. Four years later she finally sighted Point Arguello, California, after seventy-four days sailing a thirty-one-foot ketch from Japan, across the violent and unpredictable Pacific. This memoir recounts the inward journey that paralleled her sailing feats.
