Summary: My favorite book
Comment: Was her journey too dangerous for someone so inexperienced and so young? Yes, but perhaps those very same factors made Tania's voyage such an adventure. I have read the book in it's entirety twice, and selected parts more often than I can count. She did what any good writer should do, in that she "showed" her readers rather than "told" her readers. She painted beautiful images of her suroundings whether on the boat, in the South Pacific, or when she dealt with her late mother. A wonderful book for the lovers of travel and adventure.

Rating: 5
Summary: Coming of Age
Comment: There are thousands of us who sail and many more of us who write, rarely are the two talents combined as well as they are here. You do not simply read Maiden Voyage, you take the single handed journey around the world along with Tania, and at the end, your life too will be changed. Do not hesitate, if you have not already read this book click "add to cart" now, you will not be dissapointed. The fragile beauty of this story of a young woman's rite of passage is waiting to tug at your emotions and haunt your memory. After reading it, you'll be back to buy a copy for a friend.

Summary: Read it again and again... Aebi's adventures never get old!
Comment: The amazing story of an 18 year old who sets out to see the world. However, unlike the majority of us who board a 747 and are at our destination a few hours later, Aebi travels around the world alone on a sailboat. Her adventures are really interesting and her story is inspiring. At times, the book is a bit technical (it *is* a sailing book), but even for those of us who have never sailed before in our lives, her accounts of her past and her travels really make the book enjoyable and understandable. I've read it several times and it has always managed to inspire me. Never a boring read.
