Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 1980s saw unprecedented changes to Alaska's hook-and-line fisheries and the commercial-fishing fleet--longlining halibut and black-cod, trolling king salmon. Halibut "seasons" compressed from near year-round scrunched to 24 hours--hours--and fishermen are still dead because of it. 100s of black-and-white photos add to the stories written at the time for the fish papers of the day, quoting many fishermen in real time and putting you right there on the docks and boats. New material establishes the scene and ties up the ends, all told a documentary history of a unique and fleeting era like none other before, since or ever again. Original hardcover coffee-table book reformatted from 9x12 to this hardcover 10x8 with no material lost.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Deadly Chase on The Bering Sea Immerse yourself in crewman Spike Walker's Working on the Edge, an adrenaline-fueled narrative that brings to life the world of Alaskan king crab fishing. Set against the merciless backdrop of the turbulent Bering Sea, the book is a visceral account of human struggle, survival, and the dogged pursuit of fortune. Working on the Edge transports you to the wretched, unforgiving conditions of the Bering Sea with its icy winds, treacherous waves, and debilitating on-deck labor. More than a mere profession, crab fishing in these chilling waters stands as a brutal testament to the battle of man against nature, where every decision carries the weight of life and death. Alongside personal stories, Walker brings to light the stories of survivors from the industry's deadly disasters, painting a vivid picture of the harsh reality of this dangerous line of work. Walker rivetingly depicts the modern-day gold rush that drew hundreds of fortune-and adventure-hunters to Alaska's dangerous waters.
