Relapse

By: Jake Anderson

Narrated by: Joseph Brookhouse

As featured on Deadliest Catch

A fourth-generation fisherman, Jake Anderson, grew up in the rich fishing environment of Anacortes, Washington. At age 17, Jake began salmon fishing in Bristol Bay, Alaska, and by the age of 25 he was crab fishing in the heart of the Bering Sea. Soon after, Jake became a deckhand on the F/V Northwestern and joined the popular television series Deadliest Catch. As an integral part of the show, Jake is known for his hardworking nature that has allowed him to evolve from greenhorn to licensed captain.

Aside from fishing, Jake has a harrowing story that has yet to be told. As an avid skateboarder, Jake aspired to become a professional until he was sidelined by injury, addiction, and homelessness. After relentlessly battling back, he was then confronted with the untimely losses of his sister, father, and mentor, Phil Harris. But with depth and maturity, Jake persevered. In his debut book, Relapse, Jake serves as an inspiration as he candidly shares his private journey to overcome tragedy.

An inspiring transformation

Accurately told and well written!
I was raised in the same small town as Jake and have known him since I was 10. Even though I wouldn’t consider us more of familiar acquaintances, I’ve only known him to be funny, kind hearted and always quite determined to master anything he involved himself in. He was always naturally talented. I have always recognized and admired his relentless self discipline and ability to push past the difficult times.
His story reads exactly as I knew him. I’m so glad he has allowed his traumas make him better in a healthy way.
He will be a phenomenal dad and I’m certain Keith is so proud of him.

I only wish it were longer!
