Voyage of the Clipper Ship Crucible

What began as a millionaire's drunken wager and voyage of adventure has become a desperate struggle for survival as the crew of the clipper ship Crucible becomes caught up in the most horrific events in all of human history. This is the account of their epic journey through a world torn asunder by famine, disease, and war. Crucible takes the reader on an adventure filled journey covering half the globe. From sunny Spain to the deserted whaling station of Grytviken on South Georgia Island then continues with the crew to Terra del Fuego where they battle a would-be despot. Venture with them into the Pacific and encounter South Seas Islanders turned cannibal. Discover the tiny Polynesian Island of Rapa Iti so remote that life goes on blissfully unaware of world turmoil. Meet fellow adventurers and learn their stories while sailing the globe in search of a safe harbor and place to call home.
