One of my favorite books is " The Old man and the Sea " by Earnest Hemingway. This book is a moden-day classic, written about 1950. It is about an old, old fisherman who lives in Central America. He is very poor and has just used up the last of his resorces. But he still has his boat and a young friend to halp him. But the Old Man knows he can't survive without money so he takes his boat to the " deep waters ". As soon as he gets a tug on his line, the fateful voyage begins.
