What sailor doesn't enjoy reading a book like The Perfect Storm or Fastnet, Force 10: The Deadliest Storm in the History of Modern Sailing? What offshore sailor hasn't imagined himself or herself in a survival situation when the boat goes down or is drifting helplessly without rescuers on the way? If you are intrigued to learn information that could help you survive in a life-threatening situation, or if you simply like reading about people who have had to depend on their own wits and knowledge to survive a Shackleton-like situation, you might be interested in the new book, The U.S. Navy SEAL Survival Handbook, by Don Mann and Ralph Pezzullo.
