Find a way : the inspiring story of one woman's pursuit of a lifelong dream

Nyad, Diana, (author.).

On September 2, 2013, at the age of 64, Diana Nyad emerged onto the shores of Key West after completing a 110 mile, 53 hour, record-breaking swim through shark-infested waters from Cuba to Florida. Her memoir shows why, at 64, she was able to achieve what she couldn't at 30 and how her repeated failures contributed to her success.
