The Widow Wave : 9781610272735 : 01 Sep 2014 : "A compelling story of a modern day maritime tragedy that beautifully discusses the vital importance of advances in observational technologies, forecasts and communications in avoiding future loss of life at sea. Jay Jacobs skillfully weaves together the legal, scientific and maritime narratives to enthrall and educate the reader." - Julie Thomas, Scripps Institution of Oceanography, Manager of the Institute of Geo and Planetary Physics . "Using his authenticating experience as a highly trained sailor and trial lawyer, Jacobs analyzes San Francisco's worst recreational fishing boat accident and its resulting litigation. The Widow Wave provides insight into this tragedy and depicts the infighting between the highly skilled lawyers and their expert witnesses. How this accident happened will keep you guessing right up to the end. The Widow Wave is crisply written, fast paced, and a most enjoyable read." - Daniel J. K
