Reseña del libro "Shipwreck in Oman: A journal of the travels and sufferings of Daniel Saunders, Jun (en Inglés)"

DISCOVER THE INCREDIBLE, BUT TRUE, STORY OF SURVIVAL AND ADVENTURE OF AN 18TH CENTURY AMERICAN SHIPWRECKED IN THE DESERTS OF ARABIA.IN 1791, SAILOR DANIEL SAUNDERS SET SAIL FROM SALEM, MASSACHUSETTS - IN THE NEWLY INDEPENDENT UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. Like many from Salem, he was seeking riches and perhaps renown on perilous trade routes to the East. But his voyage ended in catastrophe when his ship was wrecked on the desert coast of Oman during the monsoon season.Stranded in a foreign land, Saunders endured a gruelling 1,000-kilometer journey on foot across the scorching Arabian desert and mountains. Aided only by the help of destitute nomadic strangers, he endured deadly heat and deprivation in a test of perseverance that seemed beyond human limits. New to this edition are place-specific modern B&W photographs for context and historical images. A brief introduction to the period helps set the scene.This is an unforgettable story of disaster, survival, and the indomitable human spirit from a forgotten era of maritime adventure. For anyone fascinated by the challenges faced by 18th-century seafarers, the history of Salem and Oman, or incredible tales of shipwrecks and survival, this book is a must-read. Read it and understand the life of our ancestors. There is plenty of interest in this book regarding - Ships, Arabian Peninsula, Sailors, Shipwrecks, people from Salem Massachusetts, Sultanate of Oman, Maritime History of the USA, 1765-1800 History.
