Adrift by Steven Callahan
"Adrift" is a gripping true story of a man who survives 76 days lost at sea. After his small sailboat is destroyed in a storm, the author fights for survival on an inflatable life raft, facing relentless sun, violent storms, shark attacks, and the constant, gnawing hunger. His resourcefulness and will to live is a testament to the human spirit and its instinctual will to survive, even in the face of seemingly insurmountable odds.
