Based on the exceptional and fascinating eyewitness account of a
17th century Spanish padre, Dave Horner's Shipwreck is the
absorbing and true story of two immense galleons that were lost
(along with hundreds of passengers and millions of pesos in
treasure) to disasters at sea. Shipwreck is an extraordinary
literary adventure which interweaves accounts of the many attempts
throughout the past three centuries to recover the sunken treasure,
including the recent discovery and salvage of one of the galleons
by Dave Horner himself. Shipwreck is an outstanding history of true
adventure on the high seas, past and present, which is wonderfully
enhanced for the reader with 50 photographic illustrations, six
maps, four line drawings, seven appendices, as well as
bibliographies of archival sources, institutions, original
documents or primary works, and a general listing of thematically
appropriate titles for further suggested readings.
