From the acclaimed author whose beloved books inspired the hit television show, The Deadliest Catch, comes a thrilling true adventure tale in the Alaskan seas A Malaysian cargo ship on its way from Seattle, Washington to China ran aground off the coast of western Alaska's Aleutian Islands on December 8, 2004 during a brutal storm, leading to one of the most incredible Coast Guard rescue missions of all time. Two Coast Guard Jayhawk helicopters lifted off immediately from Air Station Kodiak during the driving storm in an effort to rescue the ship's eighteen crew members before it broke apart and sank in the freezing waters. Nine of the crew were lifted from the ship and dropped aboard a nearby Coast Guard cutter. But during attempts to save the last eight crew members, one of the Jayhawks was engulfed by a rogue wave that broke over the bow of the ship. When its engines flamed out from ingesting water, the Jayhawk crashed into the sea. The seven crew members from the ship who had been hoisted into the aircraft, along with the chopper's three-man crew, plunged into the bitterly cold ocean where hypothermia began to set in immediately. Interviewing all the surviving participants of the disaster and given access to documents and photos, acclaimed author Spike Walker has once again crafted a white-knuckle read of survival and death in the unforgiving Alaskan waters.

Nights of Ice is a critically acclaimed account of the dangerous and harrowing job of fishing off of the treacherous, subzero Alaskan coastline. Spike Walker has spent more than a decade fishing in the subzero hell of Alaska's coastal waters. This collection--coming on the heels of his classic memoir Working on the Edge--is a testament to the courage of those who brave nature's wrath each fishing season, and to the uncontrolled power of nature herself.. The crewmen in Nights of Ice face a constant onslaught of roaring waves, stories-high swells, and life-stealing ice. Tested by the elements, these seamen battle for their vessels and their lives, on every page evincing a level of courage and a will to live seldom found elsewhere in modern society.

See James P. Sweeney as the grumpy old man on Nat Geo's Ultimate Survivor Alaska airing Sunday nights. His quotes are hilarious and his actions are strong. Tune in and see this living legend. His book A Thousand Prayers is the ultimate survival story. A month after the Exxon Valdez runs aground on Bligh Reef, experienced mountaineer James P. Sweeney Jr. and his buddy Dave Nyman are ascending Alaska's Mount Johnson. A fall sends Jim hurtling a hundred feet down the mountainside. His femur is fractured, his hip is dislocated, and his head is bleeding. As Dave desperately struggles to lower his friend to safety, the mountain throws one avalanche after another at them. Barely conscious, Jim is left overnight in a wet sleeping bag perched precariously on a flat spot on the mountainside while Dave skis twelve miles up the Ruth Glacier to the Mountain House, only to discover that the only help available comes from four inexperienced skiers who are ill prepared for a dangerous rescue mission. On day four, a hard landing by a passing light plane leaves the pilot and his passengers-including his pregnant wife-stranded at the Mountain House without any survival gear. All told, Jim spends over a week on the mountainside, enduring avalanches and deadly blizzards. A harrowing true tale of courage and endurance, Jim's story has been featured in magazines and newspapers, and even dramatized on the Discovery Channel's I Shouldn't Be Alive.

"A riveting...saga of survival against formidable odds" (Washington Post) about one man who survived a World War II plane crash in Alaska's harsh Yukon territory Shortly before Christmas in 1943, five Army aviators left Alaska's Ladd Field on a routine flight to test their hastily retrofitted B-24 Liberator in harsh winter conditions. The mission ended in a crash that claimed all but one-Leon Crane, a city kid from Philadelphia with no wilderness experience. With little more than a parachute for cover and an old Boy Scout knife in his pocket, Crane now found himself alone in subzero temperatures. Crane knew, as did the Ladd Field crews who searched unsuccessfully for the crash site, that his chance of survival dropped swiftly with each passing day. But Crane did find a way to stay alive in the grip of the Yukon winter for nearly twelve weeks and, amazingly, walked out of the ordeal intact. 81 Days Below Zero recounts, for the first time, the full story of Crane's remarkable saga. In a drama of staggering resolve and moments of phenomenal luck, Crane learned to survive in the Yukon's unforgiving wilds. His is a tale of the capacity to endure extreme conditions, intense loneliness, and flashes of raw terror-and emerge stronger than before.
