Summary: Summary of the book: Against The Sea
Review: Reading just a couple of pages and already I start to feel myself hanging on to every word the author places onto the canvas, a clear picture is being painted word for word. The writing is very descriptive and really takes me for a ride that captures my attention and keeps it. When I read a book, short story, article or the ticker endlessly scrolling on the bottom of a 24 hour news show, I want to be either told quickly what is going on or I want my attention to be grabbed so strongly that I can't put the pages down until the end. This book does just that, the authors descriptive writing style lets the words flow as I'm taken right into the story and right into the action. The ingredients that most appeal to me in this book are the descriptive writing style of the author, the powerful story line and of course stories about man against Mother Nature. When reading this book I think about how the authors use of descriptive words and the flow of the writing and I think to myself how great it would be if someday I could have the same effect with a touch of my own style. I would like to make the picture come alive with fewer words and effort. Thank You Linda for sharing this book with me. Tim Danielewicz

Summary: Short 5-7 page stories of adventures at sea.
Review: This book is a quick read. It consists of many short stories of adventures at sea. Some are pretty good, some are not. If you like sea stories ( I do ) you'll find this book lacking. My son, who is not an avid reader, liked the shortness of each story and eventually read the whole book. If you like to read in short spurts, you'll like this book.
