Blood on the ocean: The forgotten true story of the Veronica mutiny
Anna-Lena Berg
ASIN: B00IQUFABU
Publisher: Anna-Lena Berg
Pages: 294

In October 1902, the barque Veronica set sail from Ship Island, Biloxi, Mississippi, on what proved to be her last voyage. Carrying a cargo of pitchpine and a crew of twelve men, the ship never reached her intended destination, Montevideo. Tensions among the mixed crew and officers on board quickly built up, culminating in mutiny and disaster in mid Atlantic. "Blood on the ocean" is the first full-length account, based on extensive research, dealing with this strange and unsolved maritime mystery. It is an exciting story, bringing back to life the last days of the big sailing ships and the struggle to survive for those who sailed them.
