But the payback, if one survives, can be tens of thousands of dollars for a month-long season. Photographs. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - best story on hard working craber'sone of the best books i have ever read. this book gives an insight of life on a crab boat in the bering strait. Rating:  - Love the book!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! Rating:  - Where did his editor go?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.

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, ...

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.
