The Wager: A Tale of Shipwreck, Mutiny, and Murder by David Grann
adventurous
dark
tense
slow-paced
4.25
This is the book that kept on giving.
✅ well researched (that BIOGRAPHY?! my god!)
✅ adventure
✅ tales from multiple perspectives, including journals
It’s a bit lengthy, and sometimes felt discouraging, but I think it’s mostly due to what these men endured. What a story.
(That would be the perfect gift from someone who loves an adventure but not fantasy.)
