Blind Leading the Blind

Product Description

When Stuart Andrews described his plan to paddle sea kayaks from Australia to Papua New Guines via the unsurveyed waters of the Torres Strait, he was told it would be 'the blind leading the bline' - and that was before he explained that two of his team members were, in fact, blind!
In 1991, Stuart Andrews, a champion decathlete and member of Australia's bobsled team, was badly injured in a World Cup bobsled event in Italy, which forced him to reassess his life. Faced with the possibility that he might never regain the full use of his arm, Stuart reflected on the achievements of his blind friend, Paralympian Russell Short, to help him through.
