Synopsis:

Documents the author's efforts to become the first woman to row solo across the Atlantic, describing the hurricane season that challenged her efforts, the love affair that inspired her subsequent achievements, and the ways in which she learned to embrace her humanity.


Review:

"Nearly ten years after the conclusion of her groundbreaking journey, McClure offers her reflections in contemplative, honest language, revealing her meaningful road to self-discovery." (starred review)

Kirkus Reviews, 03/15/2009

Review:

"No question about it: A PEARL IN THE STORM is a rip-roaring adventure tale. But woven into its fabric, in alternating chunks of narrative, is another story: the author's effort to understand her life on land..."

Suki Casanave, Washington Post, 04/29/2009

Book Description: HarperCollins Publishers Inc, United States, 2009. Hardback. Book Condition: New. 229 x 152 mm. Brand New Book with Free Worldwide Delivery. Why would anyone want to row all the way across the Atlantic Ocean without benefit of motor, sail, or company? Tori wants to show the world what one person with a mission can do. She wants to set an example for self-sufficiency and dedication. When she loses all means of communication except her emergency beacon, she rows on, even though she will have no way to find the Gulf Stream or avoid the perilous hurricanes that nearly kill her. When she finally has to signal for help, she goes home hating herself. Funny, self-deprecating, and painfully honest, Tori makes us understand why someone would want to undertake such a perilous journey. So with her friends and her lover, she devises a plan to succeed, and succeed she does. But the climax of the book is a far more unlikely and mundane event than would once have been impossible for Tori. Bookseller Inventory # AB99780061718861
