Title: A Good, Solid Read
Review: In a world that's more and more about go along to get along and where people will barely risk embarrassment let alone their lives, this is a story of people still working at sea and taking mortal risks to earn a livelihood. It protrays an older, more elemental world where survival is more important than being on a wining team and where can-do optimism pales beside the fury of a storm at sea. Junger has written a truly interesting and unique book. Something worthy of the New Yorker before it turn to chic literary voguing. To someone who once spent a few days in a small sailboat in the middle of a gail, it brought back the confusion and terror of the sea. I recommend it to anyone who loves the elements. Also, take a look at Allard Coles' classic, Heavy Weather Sailing
