Synopsis:

Voyage of the Merry Ark tells the remarkable story of five crewmen caught in an ocean storm that nearly took their
lives. The story of the at-sea rescue of the dog Sam, the ship’s mascot, was published nationwide, sparking a revolution in
American animal rights, one that continues sixty years later. Such an extraordinary ending–nautical and political–required
extraordinary players, including Memphis civil-rights lawyers Lucius Burch, Mike Cody, and George Grider, a future U.S.
Representative.

Readers will enjoy the description of the Yucat�n ruins in the day before the tourists arrived, and will revel in the story’s
light side, including an underwater treasure hunt that turned the stressed seamen into teenage pranksters and thieves. Voyage of the Merry Ark gives readers a gripping sea story, along with a political saga that will appeal to dog lovers and historians alike.
