Bold is not the act of foolishness but the attribute and inner strength to act when others will not so as to move forward not backward.
ISBN10: 0952397129, ISBN13: 9780952397120, [publisher: Peter McBride and Richard Larn] Softcover Paperback. Fine condition. Not Inscribed. Illustrated. 202 Pages. Events amongst the Western Rocks of the Isles of Scilly, Cornwall, during the night of 22/23 rd October 1707 are unprecedented in the long history of the Royal Navy. During a brief twenty minute period four men o'war were lost along with a famous Admiral, some 1400 officers, seamen and Royal Marines, and a fortune in treasure. The effect on the Adiralty and the Nation was profound, precipitating the Longitude Act of 1714 and a prize of £20,000 for a solution to an age old problem, eventually solved by John Harrison and his chronometer. From the 1707 disaster have grown numerous legends and myths, centred mostly around the figure of Admiral Sir Clowdisley Shovell who died in somewhat mysterious circumstances on St Mary's. Here is a lively account of storm and disaster, diving for treasure, maritime history, skullduggery and litigation, all set in the romantic Isles of Scilly.
