Summary of In Danger at Sea: Adventures of a New England Fishing Family
Books have been written about commercial fishermen, but few have been written by them. This is the real thing. Cottle grew up in a fishing family and became a captain in his own right; here are his firsthand accounts of life at sea, from the terror of a vessel's sinking to the excitement of dragging up unexploded depth charges to the ultimate satisfaction that comes with an honest day's haul.General Books
