The first and final chapters of THE SHIP, THE SAINT, AND THE SAILOR are the best parts of the book. The first chapter outlines how the ship, Kad'yak, came to be wrecked in the early spring of 1860 in Alaskan waters. The final chapter tells of the loss of a crab fishing boat in the winter of 2005, 145 years later than the Kad'yak wreck. Called Big Valley, it had played an important part of the search for the remains of the Kad'yak. All chapters in between the two are basically the memoirs of author, Bradley G. Stevens, a marine biologist who worked for many years for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration in Kodiak, Alaska while studying king crabs and other kinds of crabs sold on the commercial market.Stevens comes across as a totally affable fellow, one with whom a reader might sit over a cup of coffee or a beer and listen to his stories. He seems to be a passionate man with lots of interests: maritime history, shipwrecks, diving, local Alaskan culture and music, and the fisheries industry among others. He was not only active with his job, but active in the community of Kodiak (he now lives in Maryland), and while living there became seduced by the story of the wreck of the Kad'yak.The basic story is that Captain Arkhimandritov promised to honor Saint Herman on a visit to Kodiak Island. The promise was made to the wife of the Chief Administrator of the territories. She wanted him to go to Saint Herman's grave, say a prayer, and perhaps leave an offering. The Captain promised to do so, but broke his promise. As the story goes, his ship - the Kad'yak - was then wrecked, and sunk into the depths, although all men aboard were saved. Well over a century later, Bradley G. Stevens became obsessed with finding the wreck of the Kad'yak. Chapters two through twenty outline his interest in finding the Kad'yak, those he worked with to accomplish this task, and the long time it took for the project to come to fruition.If one is interested in diving and shipwrecks, Stevens' memoir will at least hold one's interest. However, despite its catchy title, THE SHIP, THE SAINT, AND THE SAILOR, seems to lack a lot of the drama of sea adventure and a lot of the methodical research of the usual maritime history book. As a memoir, however, it certainly conveys a man's passion and interest, and brings up interesting points regarding salvaging a shipwreck vs preserving it. Several of the men who started searching for the Kad'yak with Stevens decided they wanted to file a claim on the wreck, thus causing friction on the team, the rest of whose members were more into preserving and documenting the wreck rather than taking any possible gain from it. The odd part is that this is the main tension in the story, but about halfway through, Stevens allows those men to disappear from the narrative, leaving the reader wondering exactly how all those problems and conflicts were resolved.Stevens is a marine biologist, not a maritime historian. He did a fairly good job with his story, but it is definitely not a page turner. One simply meanders through his words, thinking that the man had good intentions, and feeling mildly happy for him that he was able to accomplish what he did. If the story of Captain Arkhimandritov had been woven throughout the narrative or if the fate of the Big Valley had been explored a bit more, Stevens' book might have been more readable. What stands out most, though, is how ethical Stevens is, and his words and actions certainly allow the reader to think about and analyze the ethics of maritime discovery.
Although technically nonfiction, this particular story contains a hint at karmic activity, with the possibility of a fateful shipwreck, due to an unappeased saint who had been passed up in prayer by a captain.From that fateful trip (and I can't help but hear the Gilligan's Island Theme Song playing in my head when I write that), we are taken to more present times via a research expedition, set out to uncover the truth of that fateful shipwreck, which turns out to be an Alaskan historical discovery. Add to that the fact that it was deemed the only known shipwreck associated with Russia in an eventual American territory. Since, as a side note, it is interesting to remember that the United States purchased Alaska from Russia in 1867.Along with the historical intrigue, I found it most interesting in reading the book that you are taken along on the journey in finding the shipwreck, and realizing along the way the trials and tribulations of said adventure. Raising the funds, researching the data, gathering dive crews, and experiencing yet again another perilous situation... that I don't want to give away in this review, but it is BIG.Not to compare this book and what the crew went through during their underwater research to a television show, but I couldn't help thinking about the Deadliest Catch television series while reading it for some reason. All in all, this is a great read. I could see it turned into a movie... it truly is that intriguing.Advance Copy Review
