Description

The waters of Antarctica, June 6th 1998. A young man's dream job as an observer aboard a deep sea fishing boat turned into a desperate fight for survival when a storm hit. With the captain missing and the crew forced to abandon ship, Matt Lewis led the escape onto three life rafts, where the battle for survival began. This harrowing account of human courage and folly is told in minute detail, from the moment the crew spotted the approaching storm to their eventual rescue. The story is a gripping hour-by-hour account that will keep readers on the edge of their seats. A true story of disaster, survival and one man's ultimate test, Last Man Off is a compelling read for anyone who enjoys non-fiction stories of adventure and human endurance.
