About this listen
Chronicles of a Bering Sea Captain offers a vivid, detailed glimpse of some of most dangerous fisheries in the world. From frightening to funny, these stories convey the realities of the life of a fisherman struggling to make a living in the Bering Sea.
This cold corner of the planet has claimed the lives of countless men and women, brave souls who risked everything to chase a dream, pursue adventure, and earn an honest buck. Most aim to make as much money as they can in as short a time as possible—then get out.
But for author Jake Jacobsen, the fisherman’s life was in his blood. He sailed on his father’s old wooden trawler at seven—and found his first full-time fishing job as a fourteen-year-old deckhand on his father’s boat.
Chronicles of a Bering Sea Captain recounts half a century of life on the high seas. These are one man’s stories of crab fishing, trawling, and long-lining in rough, unpredictable waters. But more importantly, these tales offer a glimpse into the lives of the untold thousands whose harrowing tales and countless acts of courage and strength will never be heard.
