Editorial Reviews

"This is powerful, emotionally-moving stuff. David has a way with words, and a great story to tell."

--Jack Canfield, Bestselling Co-Author of Chicken Soup for the Soul



"David Alan Arnold's name is synonymous with aerial cinematography like Evil Knievel's with motorcycle jumping. He's the best in the business and a generous soul to boot. There's no better guy to fly with."

--Decker Watson, Executive Producer, Deadliest Catch
