Rastahomie is back, with a question inspired by "Survivor."

Hi.

I’d like to know if anyone can point to a website or article about a person or persons who have actually been stranded on a deserted island, in recent memory (the last couple of decades or so). I’d be interested in the Survivor aspect (such as how they ate, what kind of shelter they lived in, etc.), and also the Gilligan’s Island aspect of it (such as how they were rescued).

Thanks.

Sorry I couldn’t find a website but the book described at this site http://www.sheridanhouse.com/catalog/relatednautical/castaway.html sounds like what you’re looking for.

Wow! Thank you very much! That is, indeed, EXACTLY what I was looking for!

Thank you.

I thought this was going to be about the novel by Chuck Palhaniuk
