The Last Run: A True Story Of Rescue And Redemption On The Alaska Seas

In late January 1998, after a miserable stretch of fishing that hadn't even paid for their groceries, the five-man crew of an Alaska schooner risked one last run despite the approach of bad weather. They hit the mother lode - but stayed out too long. Todd Lewan's painstaking investigation into the events that followed provides a timeless, affecting portrait of hard-living seekers drawn to Alaska in search of roots, home, and the chance to remake themselves.
