Synopsis

Blending elements of mystery and pirate lore, the renowned British travel writer revisits the wreck of the Caledonia--destroyed in 1842 near the Cornish town of Morwenstow--along the English coast to investigate possible foul play on the part of local townspeople who may have lured the unsuspecting ship ashore in order to loot the cargo. 30,000 first printing.

Store Description

BookLovers of Bath is based in the rural idyll of Peasedown St. John in Somerset (God's Own Country) in the south west of England and actually very nearly in Bath. After 20 years of being ?internet only? I have now opened a shop, Fact or Fable, in the premises of our now-closed Post Office. With over 10,000 books in my, recently shrunken, storage unit and another 5,000 or so in the shop I run an old-fashioned book business with every book listed, graded, picked, packed and posted by my own fair hand? abetted by my Jack Russells who are really, not, helpful.
