Title: A well written book about a killer storm
Review: This book is part weather report, part fisherman's tale, and part climatological lesson. On their own, chances are the book would have been a flop. But throw them together, and add a spice of human interest, and you have the makings of a great book.Sebastian Junger does a nice job of writing about a storm that took place off the coast of New England, and the effects it had on the community. And although one might thing a story about a storm might be kind of dull, the storm is really the main character of the book. Every detail on what goes into turning your average run-of-the-mill storm into a 'perfect' storm is well researched and well written. And perhaps most importantly, it is written in such a manner so that the average read isn't lost in a lot of scientific talk.No matter what your background is, if weather is something that interests you, and on some levels weather and its causes and effects interests everyone, this book is worthwhile reading.
