This book was so well researched & written so smartly! It was based on a true event but read like fiction at times. If you've read Grann's last book, Killers of the Flower Moon, you'll know what your in for. In 1740, The Wager was a ship that set out on a secret mission to… Continue reading The Wager: A Tale of Shipwerck, Mutiny, and Murder by David Grann
