In 1807, a British naval captain marooned an 18-year-old member of his crew from Polperro, Cornwall, on a deserted island in the West Indies (and was later dismissed the service for it). The seaman, Robert Jeffery, escaped to the USA, where he was discovered after a search ordered by Parliament, and paid by the ex-captain not to sue. This extraordinary but true story based on original research is told in "Marooned", first published in 1991 and now updated in this new, revised and fully illustrated edition.
