Descriere magazin:
A maritime adventure memoir that follows a crew of misfits hired by Hollywood to sail an 18th-century warship 5,000 miles for the making of a beloved blockbuster film, An unbelievable ride . . . Will Sofrin has lived the real experiences and survived to tell the tale.--Dan Shotz, Emmy Award-winning producer of Black Sails In the late 1990s, Patrick O\'Brian\'s multimillion-copy-selling historical novel series--the Aubrey-Maturin series, which was set during the Napoleonic Wars--seemed destined for film. With Russell Crowe as Jack Aubrey and Paul Bettany as Stephen Maturin, the production only needed a ship that could stand in for Lucky Jack\'s HMS Surprise , with historical accuracy paramount. The filmmakers found the Rose , a replica of an 18th-century ship that would work perfectly. Only there was one problem: the Rose was in Newport, Rhode Island, not in Southern California, where they would be filming. Enter a ragtag crew of thirty oddballs who stepped up for the task, including Will Sofrin, at the time a 21-year-old wooden boat builder and yacht racer, who joined as the ship\'s carpenter. All Hands on Deck is Sofrin\'s memoir of the epic adventure delivering the Rose to Hollywood. It\'s a story of reinvention, of hard work on the high seas, of love, and of survival. The Rose was an example of the most cutting-edge technology of her era, but in the 21st century, barely anyone had experience sailing it. The crew effectively went back in time, brought to life the old ways of a forgotten world, and barely lived to tell the tale. Just a few days in, a terrifying hurricane-strength storm nearly sank the Rose , and later, a rogue wave caused a nearly fatal dismasting. And the ups and downs weren\'t limited to the waves--with the crew split into factions, making peace between warring camps became necessary, too, as did avoiding pirates and braving the temptations of shore leave. All Hands on Deck is a gripping story of an unforgettable journey and a must-read for fans who adore O\'Brian\'s novels and the dramatic film adaptation of the Academy Award-nominated Master and Commander .
