4.0 out of 5 stars A Nearly Perfect Book, August 25, 2002
By William J. Houghton (Milwaukee, Wisconsin) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
"The Wreck of the Andrea Gail" is factual, tightly constructed, and roars to a tragic conclusion like the earlier Melville classic (although this book is considerably shorter, which I found congenial). The narrative is clearer than the over-rated recent movie. Altogether, a good read. I would like to see more from this author. Her bio says she is an experienced sailor but an unsuccessful fisher. One senses that the details of sailing down-wind and "foundering" are slightly beyond her grasp as she describes the strategies employed by the Andrea Gail on page 28. Still, this is a small flaw in a far broader tapestry. Bravo! Shiver me timbers! Steady as she goes!
