Description
by Sindi Giancoli (Author)
As one of the first women to become an officer in the commercial fishing industry, Chief Steward and author Sindi Giancoli worked for thirty years in the frigid conditions of the Alaska and Bering Sea. Aboard fishing vessels for months, she faced danger, high seas, gale-force winds, injury, death of crewmates, and homesickness. Hers is a story of resilience within a predominantly male-dominated industry where she had to face blatant discrimination and sexual harassment. Fiercely determined, she became part of what has been named "a special generation of women" who successfully claimed ownership of their work at sea. Woman's View from a Porthole is a true account of her adventures and a riveting story of survival. Facing discrimination and danger in the high seas, Sindi overcame multiple challenges in what is still considered one of the most occupationally dangerous jobs in the world. Her accomplishment has seldom been achieved by anyone, particularly a woman.
