ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

The Wager: A Tale of Shipwreck, Mutiny, and Murder by David Grann, tells the harrowing story of a British naval vessel that wrecked off the coast of Patagonia in 1741. Stranded and facing starvation, the crew descends into chaos, with tensions rising between officers and men. As they struggle to survive, accusations of mutiny and murder emerge, splitting the survivors into warring factions.

Upon their eventual return to England, conflicting accounts of what transpired on the island lead to a series of court-martials, as each man seeks to defend his actions and assign blame. The book explores themes of leadership, survival, justice, and the power of narrative, revealing the depths of human behavior under extreme duress.
