Robert (bobhe) | 748 comments I was looking at my books and thought how many books can we name as a group that go round the world?
Around the World in Eighty Days by Jules Verne
Long Way Round by Ewan McGregor
Around the World in 80 Days by Michael Palin
A Bike Ride 12, 000 Miles Around the World by Anne Mustoe

Vicky (thesevagabondshoes) | 93 comments One that I'd recommend reading is [Book:Just a Little Run Around The World|6509616] by the utterly amazing Rosie Swale-Pope.

Robert (bobhe) | 748 comments Sure loads of sailing ones. On phone so can't check. Someone look up sailors Ufca Fox, Robin Knox Johnson and Ellen Mc Cartha spring to mind. Put covers on
Good idea Susan

Vicky (thesevagabondshoes) | 93 comments Ellen Macarthur's books are [Book:Taking on the World] and [Book:Full Circle], and RKJ has written several books about his ocean voyages.

[Book:Gipsy Moth Circles the World|185082] by Francis Chichester is another round the world sailing book.

I'm also reading [Book:To the Ends of the Earth|5742796] by Ranulph Fiennes, which is the story of the Transglobe expedition, the first journey round the world via both poles. An awesome undertaking.
