"Story of an ordinary commercial trawler - and a first-hand tribute to the out-of-the-ordinary young men, our fishermen, who endure such conditions every year of their working lives. We get to know them intimately: because 'Trawler' is a vivid, gripping, half-mad and compulsively readable account of a way of life that has never been described with such intensity or delight.
Sinopsis
Having survived Borneo, Amazonia, and the Congo, the indefatigable Redmond O'Hanlon sets off on his next adventure: his own perfect storm, in the wild waters off the northern tip of Scotland. Equipped with a fancy Nikon, an excessive supply of socks, and no seamanship whatsoever, O'Hanlon joins the commercial fishing crew of the Norlantean, a deep-sea trawler, to stock a bottomless hull with their catch, even as a hurricane roars around them. Rich in oceanography, marine biology, and uproarious humor, Trawler is Redmond O'Hanlon at his finest.From the Trade Paperback edition.
