Mary Celeste: The Greatest Mystery of the Sea

Autor Paul Begg
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 31 mar 2017
Mary Celeste is an iconic mystery - a perfectly seaworthy ship found wandering aimlessly at sea, her crew strangely and inexplicably missing.
Paul Begg tells the story of the discovery of Mary Celeste and the people who vanished, and investigates over a century’s worth of speculation and survivors’ tales, searching for the facts behind one of the world’s great mysteries.

NUMAST Telegraph
 
 ‘A readable, intelligent, account of the history of the ship, the cast of characters and what is believed to be the recent discovery of wreckage identified as being part of Marie Celeste.’
World Ship Review
