This is a story of exploration and adventure, set in a time when a great deal of the Southern Pacific Ocean was still uncharted and the existence of Australia only guessed at. It is also a true story, of hardship and disasters, of faithfulness to an ideal and of courage and steadfastness in the face of unimaginable odds.
