520    "On October 1, 2015, Hurricane Joaquin barreled into the 
       Bermuda Triangle and swallowed the container ship El Faro 
       whole, resulting in the worst American shipping disaster 
       in thirty-five years. No one could fathom how a vessel 
       equipped with satellite communications, a sophisticated 
       navigation system, and cutting-edge weather forecasting 
       could suddenly vanish--until now. Relying on hundreds of 
       exclusive interviews with family members and maritime 
       experts, as well as the words of the crew members 
       themselves--whose conversations were captured by the ships
       data recorder--journalist Rachel Slade unravels the 
       mystery of the sinking of El Faro. As she recounts the 
       final twenty-four hours onboard, Slade vividly depicts the
       officers anguish and fear as they struggled to carry out 
       Captain Michael Davidson's increasingly bizarre commands, 
       which, they knew, would steer them straight into the eye 
       of the storm. Taking a hard look at America's aging 
       merchant marine fleet, Slade also reveals the truth about 
       modern shipping--a cut-throat industry plagued by razor-
       thin profits and ever more violent hurricanes fueled by 
       global warming"--Amazon.com.
