The Wager: A Tale of Shipwreck, Mutiny, and Murder by David Grann

adventurous dark informative mysterious sad tense medium-paced

3.25

A great read for those who are interested in sea travel during the 1740s. 
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!
