Adrift: Seventy-six Days Lost at Sea
Before The Perfect Storm, before In the Heart of the Sea, Steven Callahan"s dramatic tale of survival at sea was on the New York Times bestseller list for more than thirty-six weeks. In some ways the model for the new wave of adventure books, Adrift is an undeniable seafaring classic, a riveting firsthand account by the only man known to have survived more than a month alone at sea, fighting for his life in an inflatable raft after his small sloop capsized only six days out. "Utterly absorbing" (Newsweek), Adrift is a must-have for any adventure library. more

Steven Callahan's experience in *Adrift* left me physically and mentally exhausted after each night's read. Yet it was difficult to read anything else concurrently. The book club book suffered greatly on the shelf throughout this...

- Can't get the darn thing to play!
I have tried playing this disc on every CD player in my house and car and can't get any sound out of it at all. I bought it for a person in the hospital because I knew already it was a great book to listen to. How can I get my money back?

Amazing? Hardly! As hard as it was for Steven Callahan to survive 76 days asea in a rubber dingy, it doesn't make for a very interesting book. How much can happen in a setting of a dingy and an ocean of saltwater? Well, three things:...
