Time Bandit

Time Bandit by Andy & Johnathan Hillstrand tells the story of how the sea has always been part of their lives.

Raised in a small fishing village in Homer Alaska, the brothers could not imagine life without a swaying deck and pulling mighty Alaskan king crabs in from the ocean.  The king crab season is only a couple of months long and harvesting these would be one of the most dangerous jobs there is.  The Bering Sea, which is their fishing ground, can be very unforgiving, 60 foot waves and dangerous ice floes.  Working on slippery decks with 1000 pound steel traps it really is life on the edge.
