Product Description
Now in paperback, a dramatic insider's account of the world's most dangerous profession: king-crab fishing in the frigid waters of the Bering Sea where the conditions are beyond most imaginations (90 mph Arctic winds, 25-foot seas, and superhuman stretches of on-deck labor). But the payback, if one survives, can be tens of thousands of dollars for a month-long season. Photographs.

Love the book!, 2008-08-31
Ever since I saw Spike on an episode of After the Catch, I knew I had to get this book. And I'm glad I did!

Where did his editor go?, 2008-08-20
This book is painful. The writing is genuinely embarrassing. At first I though, "okay, one misspelled word, it happens." The problem was that it kept happening. He used the word abrupt twice in the same paragraph. I read the entire thing because I like books about crab fishing and I had nothing better to do. If you want a book about crab fishing, go for the "Time Bandit." This book is not worth purchasing; I can't believe this was published in such poor condition.

Great Reading, 2008-07-22
I'm surprised that I hadn't responed to this request, and have only just review this e-mail from you!!!
This "Working on the Edge", was very vibrant reading and captured my every moment, to be reading it. And in the light of my having purchased all of the "Deadliest Catch" on DVD, completed the full story!!!
I fully recommend this publication as well as, the full series of "Deadliest Catch", to EVERYONE!!!
Sincerely,
Louis Jones in Queensland, Australia

A worthwhile read, 2008-07-14
If you are a fan of the show, then this is well worth reading. Enough hairy stories and personal experieinces to make you appreciate the lives these people lead and what they go through for the love and money.

Alaska king crab fishing, 2008-01-22
Great book! Told the stories in a factual manner with a bit of a sense of humor. Made me feel like I was there. Loved it and quickly have shared it with my sister to read.
