In 'The Bering Papers' Jack Bright recounts an incredible story of his winter swimming experiences, and his role in a world first relay swim crossing of the Bering Strait from continent to continent. A team effort that spans many years and involved many nations, a story of true team spirit and camaraderie and all the ups and downs that this encompasses. This book brings to life the sense of adventure and achievement that many of us can only imagine - a tale of setting a goal and achieving it.
