IN Reviews"This will become the definitive account of this perilous trade, an addition to the literature of the sea." --James A. Michener
"Skillfully written and intelligently observed with all the muscle, beauty, and energy of a 145-foot Alaskan fishing boat making way through the treacherous waters of Shelikof Strait..." "--Kirkus Reviews"
"Walker writes with such intensity that no one will walk away from this book without travelling some small part of the way with these men (and a few women) who work on the wild, water edge of civilization, pushing and pushed to the limits of strength and stamina." --"Alaska Fisherman's Journal"
