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

Softer and Larger than Expected
I was a bit wary of this shirt because I had only purchased 100% cotton ones in the past. My first impression out of the package was how soft the material felt. I was very impressed because it usually takes many washings before oxford cloth shirts get that soft. When I put it on, I discovered that there was no noticeable difference made with the small amount of stretch fabric woven into the shirt. I suspect that there would be some give if I wore the shirt as a tight fit, but I prefer my shirts loose, so it wasn't an issue. I found that the shirt was larger than other same sized shirts I've received from Amazon in the past--bigger is better than smaller, but if you are looking for a close fit, you will want to be conservative in the size you order. I didn't realize until I'd been wearing it for a while that it lacks a pocket, I went to put my glasses in my shirt pocket and there wasn't one!

The Lacoste Men's Bayliss Sneaker is nothing short of exceptional. As a long-time fan of the brand, I recently added these sneakers to my collection, and they have exceeded my expectations in every way. Sleek and Stylish Design (5/5): Lacoste is renowned for its timeless and sophisticated designs, and the Bayliss Sneaker is no exception. These sneakers effortlessly blend classic elegance with modern aesthetics. The clean lines, subtle logo detailing, and high-quality materials used in their construction make them a perfect choice for those who appreciate both style and simplicity.

Supreme Comfort (5/5): Comfort is the hallmark of these sneakers. The moment you slip your feet into them, you'll notice the plush cushioning and exceptional support. I've worn them for long walks, a day of shopping, and even for light exercise, and my feet have remained comfortable and fatigue-free throughout. The padded collar and tongue add to the overall comfort, and they provide a snug fit without any uncomfortable pressure points. Impressive Durability (5/5): The Lacoste Bayliss Sneakers are built to last. The combination of premium leather and canvas in the upper ensures they can withstand daily wear and tear, and the rubber outsole provides excellent traction on a variety of surfaces. Even after months of regular use, they still look and feel as good as new, which is a testament to their quality construction. True to Size (5/5): When it comes to sizing, Lacoste seems to have nailed it. I ordered my usual size, and the fit was spot-on. There was just the right amount of room in the toe box without feeling too tight. I appreciate the brand's consistency in sizing, which makes shopping for their products a hassle-free experience. Outstanding Value (5/5): While Lacoste is associated with premium quality, the Bayliss Sneaker offers excellent value for money. The combination of style, comfort, durability, and brand reputation makes these sneakers a smart investment. They are versatile enough to complement various outfits, making them a valuable addition to your wardrobe. In conclusion, the Lacoste Men's Bayliss Sneaker is a triumph of design and comfort. Whether you're a loyal Lacoste fan or someone seeking a high-quality, stylish, and comfortable sneaker, these are an outstanding choice.

Excellent!
Size: 12, Color: Black/White
These men’s Lacoste sneakers are excellent! The quality is top-notch, and the leather is very soft and feels premium. Overall, Lacoste is a great brand with consistently good quality. The sneakers are very comfortable to wear, although they do run slightly small, so sizing up may be a good idea. The price was also better than in-store, which made this purchase an even better deal. Overall, I’m very satisfied and happy with these sneakers
