I love to read true accounts, and this one was not a disappointment. I really enjoyed this book from beginning to end. I was amazed at all the survivors accomplished by using just what they found on the island, as well as their wrecked ship. Amazing what people can accompish when they put their minds to it!
I am an engineer and in a position to appreciate how hard the tasks accomplished by these shipwrecked men were. Especially impressive was Raynal, the Frenchman from the Grafton. I am not sure I could even duplicate his bird cage, much less his concrete chimney or his handmade nails or his new boat made out of the old shipwreck. I read in the epilogue that original account published of the Grafton shipwreck by the survivors ignited a craze at the time to steer away from technology and get back to first principles like gardening, and shipmaking. I feel the same way today.I have read several of these 19th century adventure books, like Ernest Shackelton's polar voyage and George De Long's experience on the USS Jeanette wreck. This ranks right up there among the best of these.It contrasts the experience of two sets of castaways on the same deserted island in the Southern Ocean south of Australia. The island is forbidding in the extreme with terrible year-round weather, high craggy cliffs, low wind-twisted trees and scrub brush, and a pestilence of biting black flies and blue-bottle flies.The first set of shipwreck survivors provides the Shackelton example of both moral and physical leadership leading to a 100% survival rate for all the castaways of the Grafton. The second set of castaways resembles the "Lord of the Flies". The second set of castaways from the Invercauld has about a 10% survival rate and experience a wide range of the worst in human behavior.My impression is that both sets of castaways carried this great and horrible experience with them for the rest of their lives. The Grafton castaways learns timeless lessons about leadership and courage, while the Invercauld crew learns fear and loathing and recrimination that likely haunted them for the rest of their lives.
Wow..fantastic and incredibly well researched book. Couldn't put this down and finished it in a day! This book as incredibly well written. So often books like these can quickly become dry and you loose interest. Joan was able to use an amazing amount of research and backsory to build up an engaging authentic masterpiece. She was also able to weave together multiple plots quite successfully, and as reader, I wasn't confused. Another reader pointed out similarities in this tale and Ernest Shackleton's adventure, which I would definitely agree with. Check out Endurance: Shackleton's Incredible Voyage which was the book that really sealed the deal for me in adventure saga's.Since I was a kid and first read Robinson Crusoe, I've been enamored with tales of shipwrecked souls. There aren't too many in general out there, and not sure how I missed out on this one for so long. It was so good I bought a copy for my grandmother who really enjoys nautical tales, and she really enjoyed it was well. A++
To me this was a page-turner, a thoroughly enjoyable story of a real historic event. The author has scoured the available written logs to produce a factual yet also entertaining narrative.She follows the fortunes of two groups of shipwrecked sailors. One is made up of people that learn to care for each other: they read the bible every day, pray for their deliverance, band together and help each other at every turn. "Love one another as I have loved you" is the crucial scripture that informs their every action from early on. They prosper against overwhelming odds. Another lacks all leadership, morality or inner guidance and quickly turns on itself, its selfish individuals either murdering, cannibalizing or bullying each other to a quick death.
Joan Druett’s wonderful account of two ships which wrecked on New Zealand’s sub-Antarctic Auckland Islands is masterfully done. Never just a dry account of the tasks required for survival, she paints portraits of the two crews with all their strengths and shortcomings.Although the two ships smashed into the forbidding rocky coasts within a short period of each other, neither knew the other was there.Captain Musgrave exhibited good leadership and, that along with the skill and ingenuity of the Frenchman Raynal, resulted in all five men to survive. Misfortune struck the Scottish ship, being burdened with a weak captain and a crew unwilling to do what was required to live.The book has special meaning to us, as we were two of the very few people allowed to visit these islands a few years ago on a small expeditionary ship. We walked among the Royal Albatrosses on Campbell Island, and made our way past beachmasters , Hookers sea lions, on Enderby Island. The biggest surprise in the book was no mention of penguins, which today are quite abundant. The yellow-eyed penguin populates Enderby, and the Snares penguin is endemic to Snares Island. One is not allowed to walk on Snares because it is covered with nests of 5 million pairs of sooty shearwaters on the fragile peat. It’s a sight one doesn’t forget when, at dusk, the sky is black as these birds return from a day hunting at sea to feed their chicks.
