Book Description
The miraculous account of the man who survived alone and adrift at sea longer than anyone in recorded history. For fourteen months, Alvarenga survived constant shark attacks. He learned to catch fish with his bare hands. He built a fish net from a pair of empty plastic bottles. Taking apart the outboard motor, he fashioned a huge fishhook. Using fish vertebrae as needles, he stitched together his own clothes. Based on dozens of hours of interviews with Alvarenga and interviews with his colleagues, search and rescue officials, the medical team that saved his life and the remote islanders who nursed him back to health, this is an epic tale of survival.

He reviews Leickert's biographical data in chronological order, interspersing these with information concerning the master's training, the influence of his teachers, and the critical reception and marketing of his work. Leickert's contacts with other artists, such as Andreas Schelfhout, Wijnand Nuyen and Charles Rochussen, are examined in detail as well.
