4 out of 5 stars Great Reading   July 22, 2008
I'm surprised that I hadn't responed to this request, and have only just review this e-mail from you!!!

This "Working on the Edge", was very vibrant reading and captured my every moment, to be reading it. And in the light of my having purchased all of the "Deadliest Catch" on DVD, completed the full story!!!

I fully recommend this publication as well as, the full series of "Deadliest Catch", to EVERYONE!!!

Sincerely,

Louis Jones in Queensland, Australia



3 out of 5 stars A worthwhile read   July 14, 2008
If you are a fan of the show, then this is well worth reading. Enough hairy stories and personal experieinces to make you appreciate the lives these people lead and what they go through for the love and money.

Great book! Told the stories in a factual manner with a bit of a sense of humor. Made me feel like I was there. Loved it and quickly have shared it with my sister to read.

5 out of 5 stars Great read!   September 2, 2007
This book is a great add-on, if you are a fan of the deadliest catch on the discovery channel. It gives a true account of how the crab boom started and the crazy amount of money you could make in just a 29 day season. I really enjoyed this book and would recomend it to anyone who likes to read about adventure situations.
