A Journey Through Water, Memory, and ResilienceWhen William Van Atta steps into the icy waters of Lake Superior for a 2.1-mile open water swim, he plunges into more than just a race he revisits a lifetime shaped by water, family, discipline, and perseverance. From childhood swim lessons taught by his father to intense competitions, military service, and moments of personal challenge, The Swim is a moving memoir that captures the enduring power of sport to carry us through life's hardest currents.
Told with humor, clarity, and heartfelt reflection, this book is not just about swimming it's about facing fear, embracing growth, and honoring the people and places that shape us.
