You live according to what you've got.
Andrew Gove represents a disappearing culture. In 1937 at age 7, he started lobstering from Eagle Island, Maine, and didn't quit for 82 years. That hard-work ethic stemmed directly from his upbringing on Eagle Island, one that focused on family interdependence, self-sufficiency, trust and honesty; concepts he exhibited throughout his entire life.

Andy was one of the hardest workers on the water in his lifetime, fishing for lobster, halibut and herring out of Stonington, Maine, and was always willing to lend a hand to those in distress, whether in his boat or his plane. But he also knew how to play and participated in the Maine Lobsterboat Races for many years, winning races a multitude of times.

Andy's memoir is written with warmth, humor and humility. Told in his own words and unique voice, reading it will make you feel like you're sitting at his kitchen table, listening to his stories and feeling his love, compassion and commitment to family, friends, work and animals.

This memoir speaks to all of us. For those of us whose lives Andy touched directly, as he did mine for 50 years, this memoir is a reminder and reinforcement of our shared experiences. For those who come to know him through this book, the legacy of his life's lessons is here for all.
