Taylor, Stephen Caliban's Shore The Wreck of the Grosvenor and the Strange Fate of Her Survivors
New York W. W. Norton & Company 2004 0393050858 / 9780393050851 First Edition; First Printing Hardcover Very Good in Very Good dust jacket
Light edge wear; DJ in protective Mylar sleeve, unclipped. A bright, solid book ; 1.1 x 9.3 x 6.3 Inches; 297 pages; In the summer of 1783 the grandees of the East India Company were horrified to learn that one of their finest ships, the 741-ton 'Grosvenor', had been lost on the wild and unexplored coast of southeast Africa. Astonishingly, most of those on board reached the shore safely; 91 members of the crew and 34 wealthy, high-born passengers, including women and children. They were hundreds of miles from the nearest European outpost and they were not alone. "They surveyed one another with mutual incomprehension: on the one hand the dishevelled castaways; on the other, black warriors with high conical hairstyles, daubed with red mud...." Full of unexpected twists, 'Caliban's Shore' takes the reader to the heart of what is now South Africa, to analyze the misunderstandings that led to tragedy, to tell the story of those who returned, and to unravel the mystery of those who stayed.
