Paperback. Condition: Very Good. 'The sky had gone: in its place was a wall of water, white horses on the top, readying itself to fall on me'. What kind of man throws himself out of a helicopter in a storm? Or dangles by a thread over mountainous waves? Or strikes a panicking sailor to save his life? Chief Aircrewman Jay O'Donnell, a former Royal Navy Search and Rescue diver, has seen - and lived - it all. Scrambled at a moment's notice, in all weathers - but usually the worst - he and the crew of Sea King Rescue 194 have braved some of the most frightening storms ever to lash the UK. In this gripping account, O'Donnell describes the mix of bravery and terror that comes with every call. He explains the rigours of training; tells of grisly tasks like fishing bodies out the sea; and, conveys the horror of being winched 80 feet in a storm while clutching a squirming baby, or being dragged through freezing waters on a loose line. Culminating in the astonishing, hair-raising rescue of 26 crew from the MSC Napoli disaster in Cornwall, January 2007 - where O'Donnell was decorated for his courage and refusal to give up in appalling conditions - "Rescue 194" is an unforgettable tribute to the Royal Navy's search and rescue crews. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Please feel free to inquire as to particulars and/or additional photographs. . Enlisting in the Australian Military in1942, O'Donnell served with Australian Forces in New Guinea undertaking perilous long-range reconnaissance patrols in the Central Highlands and the Aitape-Wewak area. He was awarded the Military Cross for 'initiative and courage'. . In 1964 O'Donnell entered Time Expired, - based on his Papua-New Guinea experience-, in the Adelaide Advertiser literary competition in 1964; it won second prize. His company, Leksand Press, published the book in 1967. He was elected to the committee of management of the Australian Society of Authors in 1966 and served as chairman in 1969-75. Turning the writer's property of copyright into an income became his obsession. In 1968 he founded the Australian Copyright Council to give legal advice to authors, agents and publishers. In 1989 CAL paid $1.1 million to authors and publishers and made an award recognising the 'unique service to Australian copyright' of O'Donnell. The ACC established the G. C. O'Donnell biennial essay prize later that year. Twenty years later CAL had paid authors and publishers $600 million. In exceptionally good condition.
