- Lionheart : A Journey of the Human Spirit (book)
-
On 31 October 1999, Jesse Martin, in his yacht Lionheart, completed the last great adventure of the twentieth century becoming the youngest person to sail solo, non stop and unassisted around the world. After 50,000 kms and 328 days at sea he returned home to Port Phillip Bay and a waiting crowd of twenty thousand onlookers, having lived his dream. Lionheart is Jesse's story. It's a story of courage and determination and danger, and lonliness and joy. But, above all, it's a story full of wonder at our capacity as human beings to stretch way beyond our reach and attain the seemingly unattainable.

- The Journey of Kijana (book)
- On the surface the journey of the Kijana had all the makings of an absolute dream adventure. Jesse and four friends, sailing around the world for three years, in search of paradise and wild adventures in exotic places. But somewhere between the vision and the voyage, life and human nature intervened.
Kijana is a warts-and-all account of what really happened – the crew’s adventures and euphoria, their disappointments and heartache, their fights and friendships. At times reckless, and sometimes wise, but always bravely honest, Jesse takes us again into the remarkable world of a born adventurer.
