520 |a "True story of the American whaleship Mentor, wrecked in 1832 on a remote reef in the western Pacific. With supplies dwindling, the eleven surviving crewmen face not only the bleak miseries of shipwreck in unfamiliar territory but also the tense uncertainty of first contact with the Idigenous people of the Micronesianarchipelago of Palau, who approach the deserted days of the ship's lamentable arrival. In this gripping saga of cultural collision, gritty survivalism, winning historian Eric Jay Dolin vidvidly reconstructs the Mentor's doomed voyage, the years of perilous captivity, and the delicate negotiations and fraught naval rescue mission that followed."--  |c Provided by publisher.
