Más información sobre el libro

Survivors of His Majesty's Ship the Wager, shipwrecked in 1740, faced starvation and chaos on a desolate island before crafting a makeshift vessel to escape. Initially hailed as heroes upon reaching Brazil, their story quickly unraveled when another group of castaways arrived in Chile, accusing them of mutiny and treachery. A court martial ensued, exposing the brutal anarchy among the crew and questioning the morality of imperial ambitions. This gripping narrative explores extreme human behavior and the darker truths of empire.
