Book excerpt: For readers who relish the image of clinging to a sinking makeshift raft while fighting off sword-wielding and delirious mutineers wrenching the last cask of water from a sailor's sun-scorched hands (while sharks circle in famished anticipation), Shipwrecked! Adventures and Disasters at Sea is an irresistible read. A heady voyage through human suffering at the hands of unforgiving oceans, cruel captains, and implacable fate, this latest collection of Evan Balkan's impeccably researched true adventures details 14 major maritime disasters. Included are such legendary stories as the 1629 maiden voyage of the Batavia that ended in mutiny and murder, and the dramatic destruction of the majestic three-masted barquentine Endurance in ice-clogged Antarctic waters in 1912. A vast spectrum of human emotion and activity is featured in these exciting profiles, from deadly incompetence and brutish cannibalism to surprising self-sacrifice and quiet heroism.

Book excerpt: "In this decade of artificially created ""critical"" situations on television shows such as Survivor and Fear Factor, it is important to recall true stories of real peril. Castaway is a compilation of first-hand accounts of 19th century shipwreck survivors. Some are being published for the first time in over a hundred years, and some for the first time ever. All of these stories of eking out an existence on remote, desolate islands in the Indian Ocean are true and have not been embellished. The stories are more fantastic than fiction and they reveal the terror and courage of raw survival and showcase human nature at its worst and at its best."
