The Wave By Susan Casey

The Wave By Susan Casey

Enjoyable book. Not really a chronological story, but a collection of events. Before reading this, I didn't know about this relatively recent community of people seeking big waves. "Jaws," "Egypt," "Ghost Tree," etc. Very interesting. It's a worthwhile read.

A sailor’s Story, Sam Glanzman

Third book. I didn't like the forward or the Introduction, but the book itself was OK. Lots if iconically drawn WWII scenes of ships and soldiers. It wasn't a page-turner for me, but the longer it has been since I read it, the more I like it.
