Junger reconstructs the final hours of six men aboard a 72-foot swordfish boat in the North Atlantic, battling against a torrential storm. This talented journalist writes well of the sea and its many moods -- the perfect background for a greater appreciation of the life of a fisherman.  (OCE06, $7.99)
