📖 The Scoop
Daring the Sea chronicles their incredible - and nearly fatal - row across the Atlantic in a tiny, eighteen-foot boat with no sail, no steam engine, not even a rudder to aid them as they struggled with storms, a capsize, hunger, relentless fatigue, great mental hardship, and near collisions with ships, whales, and an iceberg. Despite these obstacles, Harbo and Samuelsen rowed the 3,000 miles from New York to England in an amazing fifty-five days. Although there have been numerous attempts to better their time, no team has succeeded, and at least two men have died trying. Sadly, their dream of fame and fortune eluded them, and for more than one hundred years - until the publication of this book - they remained unsung and unknown heroes. Daring the Sea tells their unforgettable story for the first time.
