This book was really good! Grann does an excellent job at telling the story of the Wager and making the story thrilling and compelling. Also Dion Graham's narration for the audiobook really enhances the mood and storytelling.

I think this is a pretty good starter book for anyone looking into naval history. It has all the elements of a good story: dynamic characters, plot & crazy drama & suspense. Author does a good job of compiling several narratives & creating a strong sense of flow in his story telling. My only complaint is the author’s use of pronouns when he’s discussing multiple people at once. A few times I caught myself questioning “who???” But ya I love me a British naval historical account🙂‍↕️
