Presents a vivid account of a history-making storm that hit the New England coast in October 1991 and the lives it changed, weaving together the history of the fishing industry, the science of storms, and personal accounts - Baker & Taylor
The number-oneNew York Times best-seller recounts the dramatic story of the fishing boat, Andrea Gail, which was lost in the North Atlantic during an extraordinarily violent storm. Reprint. National ad/promo. Tour. - HARPERCOLL
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.
