Second mate William Lee narrates this spellbinding tale of a captain’s madness, a woman’s devotion, a shipwreck, and a dangerous escape from an island. Of this 1880 novel—about the doomed voyage of the sailing ship Waldershare—the author maintained “There is not an incident that is not true.” Some events he depicts he experienced himself.
