Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. The day after her forty-third birthday, Ann Linnea - wife, mother, naturalist, athlete - slipped into her slim, seventeen-foot kayak, pushed off into the raging surf of Lake Superior, and went in search of the rest of her life. The story of Ann's sixty-five-day journey around the planet's largest lake is one of extraordinary physical courage and challenge and even more extraordinary spiritual trial and transformation. Deeply affected by the death of a dear friend and feeling an urgent need to claim her spirituality, she set out on the treacherous waters of Lake Superior on a quest to immerse herself so deeply in wilderness that she could understand what changes she needed to make in the urban life she had created. The summer of 1992 was to prove the harshest in a century. Braving bitter cold, roaring winds, and high seas, Ann paddled alone and in the company of her colleague, Paul, to become the first woman to circumnavigate the great lake. During this arduous 1,200-mile voyage, Ann would face gnawing self-doubt and mortal danger as well as triumphant exhilaration and awe at confronting the natural world. Artikel-Nr. 00102892986
