About this product

Product Information

October 1991. It was "the perfect storm"--a tempest that may happen only once in a century--a nor'easter created by so rare a combination of factors that it could not possibly have been worse. Creating waves ten stories high and winds of 120 miles an hour, the storm whipped the sea to inconceivable levels few people on Earth have ever witnessed. Few, except the six-man crew of the Andrea Gail, a commercial fishing boat tragically headed towards its hellish center.

I had Great communication with this seller though I did not get the dvd I ordered in a multi order. They quickly communicated with me when I alerted of the mistake and everything was taken care of in a timely manner. I was very happy with my purchase. Good packing and arrived on time and my other dvd's were just as described! I'll buy again from this seller, Great experience 👍

Excellent, fair minded Seller! As described, swift turnaround, very well packed, helpful and equally swift communication. USPS lost book, Ebay claim resulted in a similarly swift refund, then it was delivered late, I was advised to keep it. Thanks very much !

This is an outstanding seller to deal with. Fair prices that are more than reasonable in this economy. The product is even better condition than described, a true value for my money. Packaged and shipped well shows seller has concern for the products he sells to arrive in excellent condition. The seller is friendly and communicates timely with his customers. All in all I highly recommend this seller and would do business again anytime. Thank you and be safe. Good luck to the future.

Terrific non-fiction title
The test of a good non-fiction novel is that a relatively boring subject becomes fascinating in the hands of the author. I picked this one up, and read it cover to cover without putting it down. A brilliant accounting of the hazardous way of life that the swordfish industry leads. Combined with the deftly told story of a cataclysmic storm, and how it affected this industry and a whole town. Very factual and detailed oriented. A bit thick at times. But a great read.The test of a good non-fiction novel is that a relatively boring subject becomes fascinating in the hands of the author.

A great read!
When I saw the movie "The Perfect Storm" I was knocked out by it. I've since watched it numerous times, never tire of it - and each time wished the ending would be different! It's one of my top 5 favorite movies, so I thought it was time to read the book to see how accurate the movie was and how the information was obtained (since the Andrea Gail was never found). The book was drier than the movie - not as much focus on the individual personalities of the crew - but it was full of real-life experiences of other crew members who went through similar conditions - one of whom revived after drowning. It paints an amazing picture of how these boats work, how the weather affects them, everything that a captain needs to know and the incredibly tough job it is. The sea is brutal, an no one knows ...

The sea is brutal, an no one knows better than fishermen. There is also more focus on the Satori, the second vessel in the movie, which is presented more accurately (and still has some controversy attached to it.) My mind got a little bogged down by all the technical information, but it all blended together to give me a much better understanding of the dangers of the business and the nature of the men and women who choose this way of life.

Great Book
The book is about a ship called the Andrea Gail that left for a fishing trip in 1991 to the Flemish Cap. It was lost in the perfect storm. It is sad, because of the things these men would do to provide their town with fish. It takes a lot of courage to do so. They were very brave men and went into a big storm. The book is a must read.
