Historia4 out of 5 stars 16
On a snowy morning in January 1910, the Alaska Steamship Company's Farallon struck Black Reef in Cook Inlet. The vessel carried no wireless radio to broadcast an SOS. Thirty-eight men scrambled into lifeboats, to be cast up on the rugged shore where they huddled under make-shift tents constructed from the Farallon's sails. Exposed to a bitter northern winter with meager equipment and clothing, a disturbing awareness sank in-rescuers may arrive too late.

A shipwreck story with good history
Revisado: 12-15-14
Would you listen to Farallon again? Why?
No. I would like to read the print addition which would include photographs and maps.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Farallon?
The splitting off of the men who attempted to sail for help.
What does Frank Wright bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Great narration. I thought it was superb.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
No.
Any additional comments?
Interesting story but a bit too detailed. No compelling leader. I needed maps and photographs. I most enjoyed learning the history of Alaska steamships in the late 1800s and early 1900s
