The Dunbar was one of the most advanced and celebrated sailing ships of the mid-19th century. Built to carry passengers in speed and luxury on the long route from Britain to Australia, it was the Titanic of its day.
The Shipwreck is the masterfully told story of the Dunbar. Using the wealth of contemporaneous sources that exist, it follows the personal stories of its crew, the passengers and the sole survivor, James Johnson, to bring to life the world of sail and the tragedy that changed the colony forever.
Larry Writer is one of Australia's most experienced journalists and writers.
