This is a story of courage, adventure, and personal discovery that will appeal to women--and men of all ages." -- Candice Bergen "In this fine book, Tori McClure generously gives us at the same time a wonderfully told adventure story and a moving account of a storm-wracked journey through self-discovery into healing." -- Charles Gaines, author of The Next Valley Over "For those six billion or so of us on planet Earth today who will never row across an ocean, this extraordinary narrative by one fellow human who did so transports us to places beautiful, haunting, daunting, terrifying, and uplifting." -- Roy Hoffman, author of Almost Family and Chicken Dreaming Corn "The reader of this book encounters a rare spirit whose courage is an inspiration." -- Jill Ker Conway, author of The Road from Coorain "A rip-roaring adventure tale." -- Suki Casanave, Washington Post "A stirring metaphor for life's unpredictable ups and downs. . . .

Synopsis
"In the end, I know I rowed across the Atlantic to find my heart, but in the beginning, I wasn't aware that it was missing." In June 1998, Tori McClure began rowing across the Atlantic Ocean solo in a twenty-three-foot plywood boat with no motor or sail. Within days she lost all communication with shore but decided to forge ahead - not knowing that 1998 would turn out to be the worst hurricane season on record in the North Atlantic. When she was nearly killed by a series of violent storms, Tori was forced to signal for help and head home in what felt like disgrace. But then her life changed in unexpected ways. She was hired by Muhammad Ali, who told her she did not want to be known as the woman who "almost" rowed across the Atlantic. And at thirty-five, Tori fell in love. A Pearl in the Storm is Tori's thrilling true story of high adventure - and of her personal quest to discover that embracing her own humanity was more important than superhuman feats., "In the end, I know I rowed across the Atlantic to find my heart, but in the beginning, I wasn't aware that it was missing."
