Book Description
In William Clark Russell's three-volume epic, 'The Wreck of the Grosvenor,' readers are transported to the brutal world of the high seas in the 19th century. Through vivid and detailed prose, Russell chronicles the harrowing journey of a ship called the Grosvenor as it faces storms, mutinies, and ultimately shipwreck. The book is a prime example of a maritime adventure novel, capturing the dangers and hardships faced by sailors during this era. Russell's descriptive language immerses the reader in the dramatic events unfolding on the ship, making for a suspenseful and engaging read. Set against the backdrop of British naval history, 'The Wreck of the Grosvenor' offers a glimpse into the challenges and perils of seafaring life. William Clark Russell, himself a former sailor, brings authenticity and a deep understanding of maritime life to his writing. His personal experiences at sea likely influenced his decision to write such thrilling tales of nautical adventure. For readers interested in gripping tales of survival and adventure at sea, 'The Wreck of the Grosvenor' is a must-read.

Book Description
In 2007 a symposium was held at Texas A&M University to celebrate the twenty-fifth anniversary of Texas A&M University Press’s publication of the first volume reporting the Yassiada shipwreck site. Seventeen papers from that symposium featured in this book broadly illustrate such varied topics as ships and seafaring life, maritime trade, naval texts, commercial cargoes, and recent developments in the analysis of the Yassiada ship itself.

Book Description
In March 1797, five British sailors and 12 Bengali seamen struggled ashore after their longboat broke apart in a storm. Their fellow-survivors from the wreck of the Sydney Cove were stranded more than 500 kilometres southeast in Bass Strait. To rescue their mates and to save themselves the 19 men must walk 700 kilometres north to Sydney. That remarkable walk is a story of endurance but also of unexpected Aboriginal help. From the Edge: Australia's Lost Histories recounts four such extraordinary and largely forgotten stories: the walk of shipwreck survivors; the founding of a 'new Singapore' in western Arnhem Land in the 1840s; Australia's largest industrial development project nestled amongst outstanding Indigenous rock art in the Pilbara; and the ever-changing story of James Cook's time in Cooktown in 1770. This new telling of the central drama of Australian history ;the encounter between Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal Australians, may hold the key to understanding this land and its people.
