Customer Reviews
Good
This is a solid story, well written. I am glad I read it and recommend it to others.
A good book with a clear focus and excellent research
This book, while not one of Roberts's finest, is still a well-researched mini-masterpiece. It's depiction of real people in seemingly unreal conditions instead of themes on several levels works well for what it sets out to do.
a good book
This is a must read book for those of you who like historical novels. It is about a ship that has wrecked on an island off the coast of Maine and how the crew survives. This book is written with the historical preciseness that Arundel and Northwest Passage are written with. This is one of the greatest historical novels
