When mapmakers of the distant past came to the end of the known
world, they would inscribe 'Here There Be Sea Monsters.' When Tori
McClure attempted to row solo across the Atlantic Ocean in a
23-foot plywood boat with no motor or sail, she had no
comprehension of the size of the monsters she would find. In deep
solitude and perilous conditions, McClure was a loner determined to
prove what one person with a mission can do. When she is finally
brought to her knees by the worst hurricane season in the history
of the North Atlantic, she must signal for help and go home in what
she thinks is disgrace. Back in Kentucky, her life begins to change
in unexpected ways. She falls in love. She is obliged to embrace
her own vulnerability. And she meets Muhammad Ali, who tells her
that she does not want to be known as the woman who 'almost' rowed
across the Atlantic Ocean. So with her friends and her lover, she
devises a strategy that will carry her to the opposite shore. With
a wry sense of humour and a strong voice, McClure give us a true
memoir of an explorer who maps her world with rare emotional
honesty.
