Rory Nugent (writer) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Rory Nugent (writer) Rory Nugent (born 1952) is an American explorer and writer. He was based out of New Bedford, Massachusetts from 1988 to 2004. ==Biography== Nugent was born in New York. After he graduated from Williams College in 1975, he went to sea aboard freighters and canvas-fliers. He sailed solo across the Atlantic Ocean four times. His fifth crossing ended prematurely when the catamaran he was sailing capsized; he was rescued five days later. In the mid-1980s, Nugent mounted solo expeditions in search of the pink-headed duck on the Brahmaputra River and Mokele-mbembe in the Congo. He may have seen both, but his sightings remain unconfirmed. He wrote a non-fiction book about each expedition. Nugent changed gears in 1992 to become a foreign correspondent, first for ''Men's Journal'' and then as a staff member of ''Spin''. He left journalism in 2002 and to work on his third book.
