There was no such thing as smooth sailing for these seamen. Otherwise routine journeys across the sea brought terrible loss and lasting distress. Vessels that were built to last were easily destroyed, most commonly by storms or collisions, causing them to sink below the surface of the water leaving behind the remains of wrecked ships.This book contains collected works of 19 true tales of shipwreck at sea, edited and compiled by the acknowledged master of adventure literature.
