Before The Perfect Storm, before In the Heart of the Sea, Steven Callahan's Adrift chronicled one of the most astounding voyages of the century and one of the great sea adventures of all time. In some ways the model for the new wave of adventure books, Adrift is now an undeniable seafaring classic, a riveting firsthand account by the only man known to have survived for more than a month alone at sea, fighting for his life in an inflatable raft after his small sloop capsized only six days from port.

Racked by hunger, buffeted by storms, scorched by the tropical sun, Callahan drifted for 1,800 miles, fighting off sharks with a makeshift spear and watching as nine ships passed him by. "A real human drama that delves deeply into man's survival instincts (Library Journal), Adrift is a story of anguish and horror, of undying heroism, hope, and survival, and a must-read for any adventure lover.

Having completed the journey successfully as half of a two-man team in the opposite direction, Steve embarks upon the solo journey across the Atlantic. Upon encountering difficulty, his boat capsizes and sinks and the book takes us through his 76 day journey at the mercy of the elements on Rubber Ducky III, his life raft.

We are enveloped in the multi-layered relationship he has with the fish, we are left astounded by his ingenuity and bravery and we are mesmerised by his ability to relay this journey.

An excellent delivery by the narrator, a lesson on the importance of preparation and a must-read for sailors and adventure lovers.
