Around the shores of the Pacific Ocean, along the western coastline
of California, Oregon, Washington, British Columbia and Alaska, lie
the remains of legions of vessels of every description and every
flag. Some lie buried in the depths, never to be found. Others lie
as twisted remains along the beaches or entombed down in the sands.
Still others have been completely eradicated by the forces of
nature. A few carried treasure; some have been recovered but most
never will be. Though the greatest treasure has been discovered
along the Caribbean and eastern seaboards, most of it was
originally lost there while much of the Pacific lay undiscovered.
The Pacific rim may yet yield finds of fabulous value. These ideas
and many others are explored in Jim Gibbs' most recent book, Peril
at Sea. This is a fascinating work on peril at sea and the
continuing battle of man against the elements. Each chapter is an
accurate chronicle by location of the ships and their sailors who
met fateful ends along the Pacific Coastline.
