THIS. This book is an oustanding work of non-fiction. Slade's pacing, use of actual dialogue, ability to give supplemental detail without straying too far from the heart of the book - all were tippy top notch.
The story itself will anger and sadden you and may make you reflect on what we take for granted in our daily lives.
A true 5 star read. READ THIS BOOK.

This is a fascinating account of the sinking of El Faro, a 700+ ft shipping vessel in 2015. The book delves into modern shipping, the history of ship building, and the pressures of capitalism without ever neglecting the human stories. The recovery of the ship's audio recordings takes readers into the bridge on the last day before the sinking. This is a good book.

This is a crazy story about denial of reality and loss of truth as well as corporate greed. Amazing that such an avoidable disaster could happen in 2015. A good metaphor for a lot of things going on in the world right now.
This was a quick read for me and I recommend.
