Fishing: The Deadliest Tales brings together ten remarkable true stories of survival, disaster, mystery and death on the water.
A fisherman is impaled by a giant marlin. Another is dragged beneath the Pacific by a tuna powerful enough to overturn his boat. A great white shark launches itself into a small fishing vessel. A lone skipper spends more than an hour being dragged behind his own boat, while elsewhere an abandoned longliner is discovered drifting with its entire crew missing.
The book also explores some of fishing history's strangest mysteries, from nineteenth-century sea-serpent sightings and an unexplained carcass recovered from a whale to the astonishing rediscovery of a fish science believed had vanished millions of years ago.
Drawing on contemporary reporting, survivor testimony, rescue records, historical documents and scientific sources, David Martin separates documented fact from speculation without inventing dialogue or private thoughts.
For readers fascinated by true survival stories, maritime disasters, dangerous animals, unexplained events and the remarkable things that happen when people venture onto the water.
