This is a riveting read about the downing of the Andrea Gail. Junger explains the dangers of fishing given extreme and not so extreme weather conditions. Gives the reader a greater appreciation for seaman who choose this way of life. Added appreciation for the Coast Guard and other agencies that provide rescue efforts for any size vessel traveling the open seas.
