Book Reviews of Time Bandit: Two Brothers, the Bering Sea, and One of the World's Deadliest Jobs
Book Review: A Fantastic story about the "Time Bandit" boys and the lives of a Crabber!
Summary: 5 Stars
I read some of the bad reviews on this book, only to try and understand why anyone wouldn't love this book. It's an exciting read that keeps you captivated from start to finish. You are given access to the lives of the Hillstrand Brothers, from when they were kids growing up in a broken home, on the Spit in Homer, and in Idaho during the off months, to their adult years, exposing their deepest thoughts and fears to the complete strangers, the fans. Their relationship with each other, and fellow Fishermen is a bond that is stronger than most. I kept thinking of the children of today, and how they will never know what it means to really care for each other, to struggle together, or to simply survive. These men are a dying breed, and it saddens me to think that men like the Hillstrand's will soon be a thing of the past. They are fearless, crazy, wild, yet compassionate and dedicated to one another, and the Sea. Russell also plays a major role in this book and the lives of Andy and Jonathan. He is a friend that you dont find very often, and unfortunately may soon be" a thing of the past" too. If I had to pick my favorite part of this book, it would be that I was giving an all access pass into the minds and hearts of this family, the family of the Time Bandit Boys as crabbers and as a family who's bond is as indestructible as the spirit of the men who fish the Bering Sea...It's a MUST READ!!!
