The Whitbread round-the world yacht race is sometimes called "the world's last great adventure", the ultimate challenge of strength, skill, endurance and courage as men - and now, women too - compete in oftern terrifying conditions. 

Grant Dalton, three times a starter and now gearing up for a fourth challenge, has teamed with well-known yachting writer Pat Hanning to produce a frank inside story of a Whitbread campaign - its highs and its lows, and the fascinating details of how obstacles sometimes have to be overcome.
