Working on the Edge

Now in paperback, a dramatic insider`s account of the world`s most dangerous profession: king-crab fishing in the frigid waters of the Bering Sea where the conditions are beyond most imaginations (90 mph Arctic winds, 25-foot seas, and superhuman stretches of on-deck labor). But the payback, if one survives, can be tens of thousands of dollars for a month-long season. Photographs. Copyright (C) Muze Inc. 2005. For personal use only. All rights reserved.
