There are stories of fishing trips in other dangerous areas. Nights of Ice, by Spike Walker (1997), tells eight true stories of disaster and survival of fishermen off the coast of Alaska. Considered to be the most dangerous place on earth to fish, these fishermen battle subzero temperatures, winds that go over one hundred miles per hour, huge waves, and other horrors. It is a compilation of stories of many survivors of the disasters that occur while fishing in these conditions. King crab fishing, considered the world's most dangerous profession, is described in Working on the Edge: Surviving in the World's Most Dangerous Profession: King Crab Fishing on Alaska's High Seas (1993), also by Spike Walker.
