As a fan of Deadliest Catch, I enjoyed this book thoroughly! It's basically a collection of interviews of the captains and some crew members. Reading some of the recollections and histories of the men involved gives you a deeper understanding of what kind of person it takes to be a successful Bering sea fisherman. I have even more respect for their work and for the men personally after reading this. It's a quick, compelling read. What characters!! If anything I wish the book were longer--these sea stories are fascinating--and the TV show really brings home just how dangerous their jobs really are. I enjoyed Captain Sig Hansen's book also, and recommend that highly. It's well-written and Sig's respect for the ones who came before him, as well as his family's contributions to Alaskan commercial fishing, is evident throughout.
