Voyage of the Southern Sun

Meer over het boek

The narrative follows Michael Smith's extraordinary transition from restoring Melbourne's Sun Theatre to attempting a solo flight around the world in an amphibious plane. With minimal flying experience and no support, he embarked on a perilous journey that included encounters with authorities, a life-threatening incident in Greenland, and a scenic exploration of the Mississippi River. Over seven months, he made eighty stops across twenty-five cities, chronicling his adventures for a dedicated online audience, ultimately earning the title of Australian Geographic's Adventurer of the Year in 2016.
