Wreck of the Medusa: The Most Famous Sea Disaster of the Nineteenth Century
by Miles, Jonathan
A spellbinding account of the most famous shipwreck before the Titanic. In June 1816, the flagship of a French expedition to Senegal struck a sandbar and sank. One hundred and forty-six of its passengers were set adrift on a makeshift raft; only a handful survived. A subsequent account of the disaster by two of the survivors would rock France’s political foundations and inspire a famous painting by Géricault.
