Summary: Read and keep in your library
Review: This book is as inspriing as it is graphic. Callahan provides a very verbose log of his fight to survive. In reading this book you definitely appreciate how remarkable a man he is and how much knowledge as a sea man he had to have in order to survive. Sometimes in reading a tale of survival it is possible to project yourself in the situation and imagine if you would fare as well as the author. After reading this tale, my response most certainly is that I would not. This doesn't make the tale any less exciting to read and gripping to imagine, it simply leads one to further appreciate the remarkable accomplishment of survival by a remarkable man.This story has been presented on TV on Discovery or TLC as well and it is very interesting to get the detail offered in the book that wasn't provided in the TV story. Callahan provides some wonderful drawings and images in his book that add immeasurably to the work.
