NOW AN AWARD-WINNING DOCUMENTARY: 76 DAYS ADRIFT A "100 Greatest Adventures in American History" by Smithsonian ALA BEST BOOK FOR YOUNG ADULTS NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER "Harrowing..an engrossing tale of shipwreck, survival, and rescue at sea." -Christian Science Monitor Before The Perfect Storm, before In the Heart of the Sea, Steven Callahan's Adrift chronicled one of the most astounding voyages of the century and one of the great sea adventures of all time. It is a riveting firsthand account by the only man known to have survived more than a month at sea alone in an inflatable raft when his small sloop sank after 8 days of sailing from her last port. Racked by hunger, buffeted by storms, scorched by the tropical sun, Callahan drifted for 1,800 miles, fighting off sharks with a makeshift spear and watching as nine ships passed him by, "A real human drama that delves deeply into man's survival instincts" (Library Journal), Adrift is a story of anguish and horror, of undying heroism, hope, and survival, and a must-read for any adventure lover. "Utterly absorbing"- Newsweek "Fascinating...a clearly written ocean yarn in which the stakes are high and a brave man wins through." - Wall Street Journal 76daysadrift.com
