HMS Wager had sailed on a British expedition during war with Spain; the disaster that followed left her men facing danger both at sea and on an isolated shore.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs survivors returned with accusations of mutiny and murder, the question became not only how they had lived, but whose version of events could be believed. Grann draws on historical testimony to bring the tensions of the voyage and its aftermath into a closely paced narrative. For readers interested in the age of sail, the book offers a powerful account of authority, desperation and the fragile bonds of a ship’s company under extreme pressure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBook Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/strong\u003e David Grann\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFull title:\u003c\/strong\u003e The Wager\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/strong\u003e Simon \u0026amp; Schuster Ltd\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Paperback\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9781471183706\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 04\/01\/2024\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDelivery \u0026amp; Returns\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSupplied to order, subject to availability.
