The Perfect Storm By: Sebastian Junger

A True Story of Men Against the Sea ; The perfect storm was a once-in-a-hundred-years combination: a high-pressure system from the Great Lakes running into storm winds over an Atlantic island – Sable Island – and colliding with a weather system from the Caribbean – Hurricane Grace. This is the story of that storm, told through the accounts of fishermen at sea caught up in the maelstrom, of their families waiting anxiously for news, and of the rescue services.
