WINNER OF THE MAINE LITERARY AWARD FOR NON FICTION NATIONAL BESTSELLER A NEW YORK TIMES NOTABLE BOOK AN NPR BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR ONE OF JANET MASLIN’S MUST-READ BOOKS OF THE SUMMER A NEW YORK TIMES EDITOR'S CHOICE ONE OF OUTSIDE MAGAZINE’S BEST BOOKS OF THE SUMMER ONE OF AMAZON'S BEST NONFICTION BOOKS OF THE YEAR SO FAR “A powerful and affecting story, beautifully handled by Slade, a journalist who clearly knows ships and the sea.”—Douglas Preston, New York Times Book Review “A Perfect Storm for a new generation.” —Ben Mezrich, bestselling author of The Accidental Billionaires: The Founding of Facebook On October 1, 2015, Hurricane Joaquin barreled into the Bermuda Triangle and swallowed the container ship El Faro whole, resulting in the worst American shipping disaster in thirty-five years. No one could fathom how a vessel equipped with satellite communications, a sophisticated navigation system, and cutting-edge weather forecasting could suddenly vanish—until now. Relying on hundreds of exclusive interviews with family members and maritime experts, as well as the words of the crew members themselves—whose conversations were captured by the ship’s data recorder—journalist Rachel Slade unravels the mystery of the sinking of El Faro. As she recounts the final twenty-four hours onboard, Slade vividly depicts the officers’ anguish and fear as they struggled to carry out Captain Michael Davidson’s increasingly bizarre commands, which, they knew, would steer them straight into the eye of the storm. Taking a hard look at America's aging merchant marine fleet, Slade also reveals the truth about modern shipping—a cut-throat industry plagued by razor-thin profits and ever more violent hurricanes fueled by global warming. A richly reported account of a singular tragedy, Into the Raging Sea takes us into the heart of an age-old American industry, casting new light on the hardworking men and women who paid the ultimate price in the name of profit.

On Good Friday, 1964, the residents of Crescent City in Northern California were preparing for the Easter weekend. Little did they know, but the worst earthquake in U.S. history was ripping Alaska apart. The 9.2 magnitude quake caused a tsunami that sped across the Pacific faster than a jet liner. The huge waves surged into U.S. coastal towns and aimed straight at the heart of the town, creating death, destruction, victims, and heroes alike in short time. Nature was on a rampage.

Summary of Into the Raging Sea: Thirty-Three Mariners, One Megastorm, and the Sinking of El Faro by Rachel Slade: Trivia/Quiz for Fans Into the Raging Sea is a thrilling, but tragic, account of the sinking of the cargo container ship called El Faro. It is a true-life story, written by Rachel Slade, and it will keep readers in awe of the dynamics of the event. The author's use of the black box recordings reveals the tragic consequences of incompetence in the eye of a hurricane. The El Faro was manned by thirty- three mariners and this voyage, heading into the hurricane Joaquin, would be their last. Everyone on board the ship was lost at sea. When the black box, with the live recordings of the disaster, was retrieved from its watery grave, it was filled with the voices of the sailors as they tried to save the ship from its disastrous end. Rachael Slade tells the story from recordings intermingled with other observations, and accounts from maritime staff and family members. Into the Raging sea paints a picture of man against nature and the valiant efforts the sailors made to hold their own against a violent hurricane. Reading this book will highlight the bravery that sailors have in harrowing circumstances.
