Publishers Weekly review

1/23/2013

Clear skies. Cool NW wind at 7 knots. Gibbous moon.
We're thrilled to note that Islands Under Fire has received a coveted STARRED review  in Publishers Weekly. Here's an excerpt: "This memoir, part travelogue and part natural history, is rich with humor, misadventure, and triumph. McCarey's writing is a pleasure, his penchant for simile and skill with dialogue particular delights... Readers will learn about the history of Puerto Rico, its marine ecology, political landscape, and a bit about boats as well—all of which McCarey folds seamlessly into his fine seaman's tale.... McCarey's maiden voyage into contemporary maritime non-fiction is an engrossing and joyful trip."
