Castaway. The stories told here
actually happened; none is imaginary; none is embellished; all are more
fantastic than fiction and are little known. These true tales of
nineteenth-century survival reveal the terror, the horror, the dark truths
about human nature, the limits of courage and the fragility of life, about
people who have been abandoned to the sea, and the ultimate joy of rescue.
