商品簡介
In 1609, aspiring writer William Strachey set sail aboard the Sea Venture, bound for the New World. Caught in a hurricane, the ship separated from its fleet and wrecked on uninhabited Bermuda, a bountiful island paradise its passengers would inhabit for nearly a year before reaching their intended destination, the famine-stricken colony of Jamestown. Following the life of this ordinary man and the extraordinary account he left of his odyssey, Hobson Woodward tells one of the neglected but defining stories of America's founding---and exposes it as the real-life inspiration for The Tempest, one of William Shakespeare's enduring masterpieces.

"Learned, lucid, and engrossing."---Alden Vaughan, Professor Emeritus of History at Columbia University and coeditor of the Arden edition of The Tempest
