The Diary of a Fishing Master

- A near-death experience after falling into the frigid North Atlantic becomes high comedy.

- The salvage of an abandoned yacht on the Grand Banks hints at mystery and intrigue.

- A voyage to re-supply the Titanic expedition 400 miles southeast of Newfoundland leads to a harrowing experience with the fury of Hurricane Andrew.

- All part of the life and times of an accomplished skipper.

I thoroughly enjoyed reading about the life of Captain Keith Bath. This book offers an important and interesting glimpse into the rhythms of a rural Canadian life lived by and on and with the sea.The book is for anyone who wants to better understand this vast country and the complexity of its people.
