Description: Binding: Paperback
Date Published: 04 Jan 2024
'A tour de force of narrative nonfiction, Mr. Grann's account shows how storytelling, whether to judges or readers, can shape individual and national fortunes-as well as our collective memory... The Wager is likely to cast a powerful spell on modern readers as well'
- Wall Street Journal

'Bestseller Grann (Killers of the Flower Moon) delivers a concise and riveting account of the HMS Wager... Grann packs the narrative with fascinating details about life at sea-from scurvy-induced delirium to the mechanics of loading and firing a cannon-and makes excellent use of primary sources, including a firsthand account by 16-year-old midshipman John Byron, grandfather of the poet Lord Byron. Armchair adventurers will be enthralled.'
