"My Life as a dog...." Nawww - I just can't do it... Sorry - I'm not gonna have fun at Frank's expense today

I didn't get the chance to get any good books this year but it might not be too late... Right now, I am re-reading "Black Hawk Down"
One non-fishing but Ocean Going must read is "South" by Earnest Shackleton. He was the captain of a sailing vessel named the Endurance that was trapped in ice as they tried to make the second trip to the South Pole and first trip that would have had two teams trying to reach the South Pole at the same time. After being trapped for months, the ice finally swallowed the ship and they had to man life boats to survive - truly an amazing tale. Not for the reading faint of heart...
Crafty - do me a favor and holler to Iron Mike as I would like to borrow "Reading The Water" by Bob Post from hime to read soon. I've heard a lot of great reviews on that old book and want to give it a try myself...
