Hard Aground

The drama of shipwrecks around the Western Cape coastline has for the most part remained untold. Many of these shipwrecks have been described in my recent book Forgotten Shipwrecks of the Western Cape. This book is a sequel to that book and adds a further thirty shipwrecks which have largely remained forgotten or untold. Again this is a book of intrigue, unsung heroes and man's determination and ability to rescue those who would otherwise have perished. All of this forms part of our seafaring history.
