Title: Well researched, well written.
Review: This book is probably one of the most well researched and enjoyable non-fiction books I have read. It tells the story of a ship which runs aground and then the survivors are terrorized by what is essentially is a madman. You can read other reviews for a more detailed account of the the book.What makes this novel so good is the descriptive nature. I have read parts to my lazy high school students and even they are captivated. For instance, the descriptions of the food, or the tortures, or just life aboard a ship. You can tell by reading this novel that Mike Dash really delved into the research of the Dutch as he explains everything vividly and breaks it down so it is very accessible. This is one of the few books that I mark as a must read.
