Daughter of the Bering Sea:Jessie Taylor has her life all planned out. She's going to be a cook on her family's Alaskan fishing vessel. Everything she's ever done has led up to her claiming her own spot in the Taylor fishing chronicles.Her father has other plans for his little girl. He wasn't going to just hand over a spot on the boat to her. She's going to have to prove herself first.When Jessie finally turns eighteen, she is put through her paces as she begins working for any crew that will hire her to cook for them. She takes wheel watches, works on deck, and then gets stitched back together after suffering the backlash of the Bering Sea.Despite accidentally starting a war between two captains and getting kicked off one of the boats, her attitude and antics help her to garner a reputation for spoiling captains and keeping the crewmen on their toes. Two years of watching his daughter bounce from ship to ship, her father finally hires her as cook. The future Jessie has been working for is suddenly hers.Then one night, while on board The Sea Hag, the Bering Sea delivers a blow that injures half the crew. With both her father and uncle out of commission, it's up to Jessie to captain the ship to safety and get the crew back alive. She's already buried one parent, and now she may lose another... Gift of the Bering Sea:For two years, Jessie has been perfectly content with her life. She has the job she wants, the man she loves, and the reputation she's spent a decade establishing. She'd be perfectly happy if nothing in her life ever changed.But life just doesn't work out that way.She has spent as much time on the water as possible, and loving it. But when a health condition suddenly arises, Jessie finds her feet planted on solid ground.Jessie's peanut-sized health issue has everyone talking. She was seen with her bags, abandoning ship mid-season. Rumors fly as Jessie struggles to deal with her prognosis.While she's stuck on shore, Jessie has a whole new set of challenges thrown her way that stretch her far beyond her newfound health problem.Once some of the local business owners get wind of Jessie's sudden availability, they decide to take turns putting her to work. Jessie, who is never one to back down from a challenge, sets out to accommodate them. Jessie's antics are in full swing as she tames a greenhorn, tends an ailing captain, attempts to give out advice, and is followed around town by a smitten little fur ball.Whether on a forced medical leave or not, Jessie proves that she doesn't know how to slow down. Not until her body lets her know that it's had enough. Stuck in bed, Jessie is forced to deal with the very thing that has had her running at full-speed for most of her life...Bering Sea Retribution:Every year, people die. More lives are claimed in some years than in others, but the old girl never walks away empty-handed.The Bering Sea offers up her bounty, helping people make millions of dollars to support an industry that few have the courage or capability to pursue.But she doesn't give her treasures up for free. She extracts a premium. In exchange for our livelihoods, she demands a few of our lives.Each boat, each crew, spends every season trying to keep the water's grasp at bay. But, eventually, every crew has to take its turn.Sometimes, she merely sends a wave over the bow and sweeps a crewmember away. Other times, her turbulent waters send heavy equipment skidding across the deck to crush her prey. Sometimes, it's the lifestyle that eats away at you. And still other times, she simply sinks the entire ship.I've spent years upon this sea, earning my living. Years spent with crewmen who'd managed to dodge the bullet of having to repay with more than their blood, sweat, tears, and flesh.But those years are over. It's our turn to pay the price.This is the year the Bering Sea will demand her retribution and claim one of our own.

Cod is one of the most widely consumed fish in the world. For many years, the Atlantic cod industry took center stage, but partly thanks to climate change and overfishing, it is more and more likely that the cod on your kitchen table or in your fast food fish fillets came from Alaska’s Pacific Cod Fishery. Alaska Codfish Chronicle is the first comprehensive history of this fishery. It looks at the early decades of the fishery’s history, a period marked by hardship and danger, as well as the dominance of foreign fishermen. And the modern era, beginning in 1976 when the United States claimed an exclusive economic zone around the Alaska coasts, “Americanizing” the fishery and replacing the foreign fleets that had been ravaging the resources in the Gulf of Alaska and the Bering Sea. Today, the Pacific cod fishery is, in terms of poundage, the second largest fishery in Alaska, and considered among the best-managed fisheries in the world. This history is extremely well documented, does not spare details, and is accessible to general readers. It incorporates nearly a hundred photographs and illustrations and is sprinkled with numerous observations from fishing industry journals and reports, even incorporating poems and recipes, making this an especially thorough and unique account of one of Alaska’s most iconic and important industries.

Natives of tiny fishing hamlet Homer, Alaska, sons of a hard-bitten, highly successful fisherman, and born with brine in their blood, Johnathan and Andy Hillstrand couldn't imagine a life without a swaying deck underfoot and a harvest of mighty Alaskan king crabs waiting to be pulled from the ocean floor. In pursuit of their daily catch, the brothers brave ice floes and heaving waves 60 feet high, the perils of 1000 pound steel traps thrown about by the punishing wind, and the constant menace of the open, hungry water. If you've watched their exploits on TV's 'Deadliest Catch', you've only scratched the surface. To read TIME BANDIT is to step into their skins, smell the sea air, feel the frigid wind, and know with all your senses the exhilarating and terrifying life on the edge. Here is the Hillstand's own heartfelt hymn to the brutally hard, gloriously independent, and mysteriously soul-satisfying life that has earned them their daily bread and defined their existence. By turns raucous and reflective, enthralling and anguished, suspenseful, and wise, TIME BANDIT chronicles a larger-than-life love affair as old as civilisation itself - a love affair between striving, willful man and inscrutable, enduring nature.
