Read War by Junger now

I don't usually re-read disaster or true-crime books. Once is usually enough.

It was dissatisfying because it couldn't tell us exactly what happened, but could only speculate on the demise of the boat caught in the perfect storm. Yet, not knowing, left me with a lingering foreboding about going to sea. I'll stay in my armchair and read about it in terrific books like this one...

Torre DeRoche, Author of Swept: Love with a Chance of Drowning



If you can get it, try "Dead Men Tapping" about guys trapped in hull of a fishing vessel run over by a barge off the coast of Gloucester, and the hours-long attempt to save them
