Description
[Machine Translation] On September 18, 1740, a small fleet of five warships left Portsmouth. There, the "Wager," transformed from a merchant ship into a sixth-class vessel equipped with 28 cannons, and her crew of 250 men were also present. The fleet set out in high spirits with a secret mission to pursue a Spanish galleon, but the voyage was terrible, with many dying from a mysterious epidemic, and the ship was finally swallowed by a storm while sailing along the southern tip of the South American continent. The crew of the Wager is separated from the fleet and washes up on an uninhabited island. What unfolds there is a harrowing battle against hunger. They fought each other for weapons and food, some even resorted to murder and cannibalism. The 33 survivors, reduced to skin and bones, return to their homeland, only to find a ruthless trial awaiting them. What is the truth hidden on this isolated island? What was the true crime they committed? The author of "Killers of the Flower Moon," which has sold more than 3 million copies in the U.S., recounts the fate of the Wager based on the survivors' journals and testimonies. This survival nonfiction book was a bestseller in the U.S., U.K., and France.
