Language: English In 1864, near the end of the age of sail, two separate ships did indeed wreck along the coast of Auckland Island - a tiny sliver of land sticking out of the forbidding Southern Ocean - a place that remains uninhabited to this dayCompletely unknown to each other, the two crews really illustrate the difference between men who are driven to survive and men who have given upOne set, inspired by their captain, built a community and eventually a ship to sail out on.I felt like I was reading a novel, all the more exciting because everything that happened was trueUtterly alone in a dense coastal forest, plagued by stinging blowflies and relentless rain, Captain Musgrave--rather than succumb to this dismal fate--inspires his men to take action
