Hi,
one of my favorite writers is Farley Mowatt. His most famous book is "Never Cry Wolf"; which has the distinction of being the only book
i ever read twice in one day. Never Cry Wolf is wonderful; as was "The Boat Who wouldn't Float".
Those were about his personal experiences. Grey Seas Under was about the tugs that went out in the Atlantic during WW2 to rescue damaged Liberty ships. These ships frequently went out in weather
where they spent as much time close to vertical as they did horizontal. Excellent book. His book about his personal experiences in
WW2 i won't describe; but is very, very good.
I second the recommendation of this book. I'm surprised no one has tried to make a movie from it.
oh, don't get me started. once I get into a book, my real life ends. I need a 12-step. thanks. we'd better stop, or Rod will start a book asylum, which is where I imagine most of us belong.here's one that will make your hair fall out: "The Truth About Chernobyl" by Grigori Medvedev. I'll send it to you if you're interested. Nothing is more frightening than real life, or more unbelievable.
