    The Finest Hours: The True Story of the U.S. Coast Guard’s Most Daring Sea RescueThe Finest Hours: The True Story of the U.S. Coast Guard’s Most Daring Sea Rescue
    by Michael J. Tougias, Casey Sherman

    Over 400 5-Star Reviews!

    In the winter of 1952, New England was battered by the most brutal nor’easter in years. As the weather wreaked havoc on land, the freezing Atlantic became a wind-whipped zone of peril, setting the stage for one of the most heroic rescue stories ever lived.

    On February 18, while the storm raged, two oil tankers, the Pendleton and the Fort Mercer, were in the same horrifying predicament. Built with "dirty steel," and not prepared to withstand such ferocious seas, both tankers split in two, leaving the dozens of men on board utterly at the Atlantic’s mercy. The Finest Hours is the gripping, true story of the valiant attempt to rescue the souls huddling inside the broken halves of the two ships.

    The spellbinding tale is overflowing with breathtaking scenes, as boats capsize, bows and sterns crash into one another, and men hurl themselves into the raging sea in a terrifying battle for survival.

    Not all of the 84 men caught at sea in the midst of that brutal storm survived, but considering the odds, it’s a miracle – and a testament to their bravery – that any at all came home to tell their tales.

  • Book of the Day: Full Body Burden

    Full Body Burden: Growing Up in the Nuclear Shadow of Rocky FlatsFull Body Burden: Growing Up in the Nuclear Shadow of Rocky Flats by Kristen Iversen

    Over 200 5-Star Reviews!

    Full Body Burden is the haunting true story of a young woman, Kristen Iversen, growing up in a small Colorado town close to Rocky Flats, a secret nuclear weapons plant once designated “the most contaminated site in America.” It’s the story of a childhood and adolescence in the shadow of the Cold War, in a landscape at once startlingly beautiful and–unknown to those who lived there–tainted with invisible yet deadly particles of plutonium.

    It’s also a book about the destructive power of secrets–both family and government. Her father’s hidden liquor bottles, the strange cancers in children in the neighborhood, the truth about what was made at Rocky Flats (cleaning supplies, her mother guessed)–best not to inquire too deeply into any of it.

    But as Iversen grew older, she began to ask questions…

    Based on extensive interviews, FBI and EPA documents, and class-action testimony, this taut, beautifully written book promises to have a very long half-life.

Meanwhile, Lindsay’s controversial entry in a major national science contest creates a minor maelstrom in the cosseted Monterey Bay community. And Allegra, with one last great love affair in her, will revisit a man she loved so many years ago, and disclose the biggest secret of the Moon family: the identity of Mariah’s father.
