Description: In October, 1991, the storm of the century--with waves over 100 feet high--struck without warning. So rare was the combination of factors that combined to produce the tempest that meteorologists deemed it "the perfect storm". As it approached, Captain Billy Tyne of the "Andrea Gail" radioed in from off the shore of Nova Scotia. Soon afterward, the "Andrea Gail" and its crew disappeared without a trace. Aptly capturing the fury of the elements, Junger takes listeners deep into the heart of the storm, depicting with vivid detail the courage, terror, and awe that surface in so furious a gale.
