Bestselling author David Grann (Killers of the Flower Moon) will recount the fallout of a British naval ship-wreck off the coast of Patagonia in the mid-18th century. The survivors of His Majesty’s Ship the Wager, eventually landed at different locations in South America, roughly 3,000 miles from the wreck, with competing stories about the incident that resulted in a court martial.
David Grann is the author of several books, including The Lost City of Z and Killers of the Flower Moon, a finalist for the National Book Award and winner of the Edgar Allan Poe Award. He is a staff writer at The New Yorker magazine.
