About this ebook
Bestselling author John Harris freshly investigates seven of the most gripping and intriguing voyages of the past 150 years. Bringing his unique skills as a novelist and sailor to reassess the fragmentary evidence, he aims to finally answer these enduring and terrifying mysteries.
He takes us:
- Aboard Erebus and Terror on Sir John Franklin’s disastrous Arctic expedition, last seen parting from their escort…
- Aboard the Mary Celeste, crewed by a well-respected captain and an experienced crew, abandoned in the mid-Atlantic…
- Aboard the battleship Maine, blown sky-high in Havana harbour…
- Aboard the collier Cyclops, disappeared between Barbados and Virginia during the First World War…
- Aboard the Teignmouth Electron, winner-apparent of the round the world yacht race, sighted deserted and drifting…
This is life at sea at its most epic and frightening.
