A review of an excellent book that has saved my back on more than one occasion!  In this episode you will get a hint of the wisdom and practical knowledge offered by this book, as well as my real-life (and sometimes embarrassing) stories of moving heavy things, mostly from my time on the Viking longships the Sea Stallion and Draken, and also on the schooner Mary Day in Maine.    
Intro/Ending Music: Many thanks to Riggy Rackin for allowing the use of music from his Nauticas album. The intro and ending themes are the sailor song "A Roving", specifically track 1.  Learn more or order his music at <a href='http://www.riggy.com'>www.riggy.com</a>
