About

One of the most amazing and remarkable stories of a survived shipwreck ever, as a Tongan cutter that departs Tonga for Auckland, New Zealand and runs onto the dreaded Minerva Reef 320 miles from any land, food or water, where 17 men must fight for the chance of survival.

Against all odds and with no sign of rescue they kept themselves alive for 102 days and in the end, brought about their own salvation by their own heroic efforts, resourcefulness and ingenuity.

Includes monochrome sketches and images.
Maps on end papers.
