This book is about the human element associated with these wrecks. The drama, the tragedies, the bravery, the sorrow, the seamanship, the discipline, the unsung heroes and the story of mutiny and murder, all of which have occurred along our Far South coast. The time span is from 1650 - 1950, when hundreds upon hundreds of sailing ships and steamships passed this coast, and were very much on their own if wrecked." .
