Knight of Team Fight Oar Die for a powerful story of perseverance, adventure and resilience on the open ocean.In her book Getting to the Starting Line, Knight shares the remarkable journey of a veteran rowing team that set out to row 3,000 miles across the Atlantic. The expedition brought unexpected challenges, including the devastating loss of their beloved boat, Woobie, the dramatic rescue of the crew and, three years later, the surprising recovery and return of the vessel to Mobile.
A longtime Mobile Bay resident, Knight brings a local connection to an extraordinary story of courage, teamwork and the determination it takes to make it to the starting line, and keep going when the journey doesn't go as planned.
