In the dead of night on July 24, 2013, John Aldridge was thrown off the back of the Anna Mary while his fishing partner, Anthony Sosinski, slept below. As desperate hours ticked by, Sosinski, the families, the local fishing community, and the U.S. Coast Guard in three states mobilized in an unprecedented search effort that culminated in a rare and exhilarating success.

A tale of survival, perseverance, and community, A Speck in the Sea tells of one man's struggle to survive as friends and strangers work separately, and together, to bring him home. Aldridge's wrenching first-person account intertwines with the narrative of the massive, constantly evolving rescue operation designed to save him.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR:

John Aldridge and Anthony Sosinski co-own and operate the Anna Mary, a lobster boat, in the open ocean surrounding Montauk. Best friends for decades, Aldridge and Sosinski are seasoned sailors and fishermen.

REVIEWS:

"A Speck in the Sea is a terrific read-harrowing and inspiring at the same time. In the end it's a moving testament both to our individual will to survive and to our collective will to come to the aid of others in distress. I couldn't put it down."
Daniel James Brown, author of The Boys in the Boat

"Sometimes being a hero means just hanging on and having faith--which is exactly what John Aldridge and Anthony Sosinski did on July 24, 2013. This is an amazing tale of survival, family, community, and friendship from two true American originals."
Paul Tough, New York Magazine

"A robust portrait of working-class Montauk, the Long Island community... richly detailed."
Kirkus Review

"This absolutely riveting book follows the increasingly desperate (and, at times, disorganized) rescue efforts as well as Aldridge's own odyssey (How does a man facing near-certain death keep himself believing he might survive?)... the book is... captivating."
Booklist

"A rich backstory-including complicated personal lives and deep family histories-adds depth to this page turner."
Publishers Weekly

Very nice and would highly recommend!
Size: 32W x 30L, Color: Medium Grey
The fit is exactly what I was looking for, slim without being too tight, and it fits true to size, so I get that modern look but still feel comfortable sitting or walking around all day. The denim feels soft yet sturdy, which makes me confident it’ll hold up well over time. I also love the classic 5-pocket design. It’s functional and keeps my essentials handy without adding bulk. The color holds up after a few washes, and there’s minimal fading so far, which is a big plus for me. Pairing these pants with a casual tee or a button-down is effortless, they easily transition from work to weekend vibes. For the price and quality, I feel like these are a solid addition to my wardrobe. Definitely recommend if you’re looking for a slim, comfortable, and versatile pair of jeans.

Love these jeans
Size: 34W x 30L, Color: Black Rinse, Size: 34W x 30L, Color: Black Rinse
Nice jeans. THe fit is great, the material is kind of stretchy, and the black color is true black not a faded look. Hard for me to find a good pair of jeans but these I love.

They feel like cardboard
Size: 36W x 29L, Color: Medium Grey
I kept these hoping to replace a denizen slim 216 that I can’t find anymore. These are not as a soft and rather quite stiff, maybe due to the recycled content. They might do for the occasional trip out of the house but I’m not impressed and glad I didn’t pay full price.

All Day Comfort
Size: 34W x 32L, Color: Medium Grey
If you like the trim look of slim-cut jeans, you will love these. The silhouette is near perfect without veering into skinny jeans territory and the extra length make mine perfect with boots. The denim is good quality and the stretch fabric retains its shape, resisting the baggy look after multiple days of wear. The grey color is just right without the unnatural whiskers and wear-lines added by other brands. I love these jeans and look forward to many years of uses.
