Book Review of Fatal Storm: The Inside Story of the Tragic Sydney-Hobart Race

Fatal Storm: The Inside Story of the Tragic Sydney-Hobart Race
reviewed on + 11 more book reviews


A harrowing sea story if ever there was one! A horrific storm swallows up a number of sailboats, leaves 57 people stranded in the ocean and outright kills six others. An even more interesting part of the tale is the psychology of those involved in the disaster. What helps one person to live while another gives up? A survival/adventure story of the best kind.
