Ten Degrees of Reckoning by Hester Rumberg

Memoir



A gripping story of the hit-and-run collision of a merchant ship and a 47 foot sailboat with a family aboard. The mother's survival and coping with her life make up most of the book. One of the worst cases of post-traumticstress she was able to sue the company who owned the ship and create a foundation to improve maritime safety. Reading it reminds one of the strength of the human spirit.
