"A story to inspire the disabled, and in fact all people, to dream and set sights well past their comfort zone."--Christopher Reeve "A spirited story of adventure. . . . Highly inspiring."--"Kirkus Reviews, starred review "A remarkable tale of determination and ingenuity."--"Library Journal It was an extraordinary dream fueled by hope and courage. Liz Fordred and her husband, Pete, both paraplegic, living in landlocked Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe), and with no sailing experience, made the unlikely decision to build a boat, haul it 1,200 miles to the South African coast, and set sail alone to see the world. Their plan seemed impossible, the obstacles insurmountable. They had only time, the gift of laughter, an unstoppable resolve, and each other. After years of labor, their struggle to reclaim lives of purpose and adventure--lives lived without limits--launched them into the vast Atlantic. They had the whole world before them--and somewhere in it a new home and a new life were waiting to be claimed. . . . "An Ocean to Cross is an inspiring story of courage, self-reliance, and triumph.
