Nyad published the memoir this past October and it drew rave reviews, landing on the Amazon Best Book of October 2015 list.  The book is just another mark in her long list of accomplishments.

In 2013, Nyad achieved a lifelong dream when at age 64 she completed the 110-mile swim from Cuba to Key West on her fifth attempt.  Earlier in her swimming career, she gained notoriety for swimming around Manhattan and from The Bahamas to Juno Beach, Florida.
