“You miss his form, and the sound of his voice, for habit had made them almost necessary to you, and each of your senses feels the loss.”
“Empires preserve their power with the stories that they tell, but just as critical are the stories they don’t—the dark silences they impose, the pages they tear out.”

I did get a little lost in the terminology concerning the ship. It is a new language to me: the parts of the ship, ship etiquette, and roles of the people on the ship. Grann does explain the etiquette and the roles of the people a bit, but I became lost sometimes.
Still an interesting story! This book may be more for someone who is into naval/military stories.
I am glad I gave this book a go though! I would be interested in watching a documentary about the Wager!
