Revised and expanded edition, with a New Introduction by the Author. "An intriguing tale of personal victories claimed from disaster." - PUBLISHERS WEEKLY "Soulful, emotional ... earnest and engrossing." - KIRKUS "Will no doubt grip any reader." - Adam Braver, author of November 22, 1963 and Misfit In a superb narrative, NY Times bestselling author Steven Callahan chronicles the four-month (April - August 1989) struggle of Jim Nalepka and three other crew to survive on their capsized trimaran adrift in the the stormy seas of the wintry South Pacific. For shelter, the four huddled together in a dank hull compartment 20 inches high and only as wide as a double-bed. Most of their gear was lost in the same gale that caused them to capsize. They were drenched nearly constantly with frigid seawater, and caught fish and collected rain for sustenance before the wind and current finally carried them to New Zealand's Great Barrier Island. Capsized was originally published with a slightly different title by HarperCollins in 1992. This new edition has been thoroughly revised by Callahan (with additional text, illustrations and a new Introduction).
