The Ship Thieves by Sian Rees Pdf

'A miracle of compressed intelligence.' The Times "Rees has pieced together a terrific story... There is nothing about sailing and seamen she doesn't know." Sunday Telegraph "In Rees's hands Porter's story reads like a fictional thriller but imparts the knowledge of a serious historical work." Times Literary Supplement "Relish this ripping, salty yarn... Rees has retold Porter's story with the same panache she showed with her cracking nautical bestseller, The Floating Brothel." Manchester Evening News "A delightful true story." The Express When London thief James Porter was sent to Australia as a convict, he refused that he had lost his freedom. When his first escape attempts failed, he was sent to the horrific penal camps of Van Diemen's Land, where he and nine desperate comrades managed to hijack a boat and cross the perilous South Pacific to Chile. There they passed themselves off as shipwrecked mariners, settled under new identities and settled into the lives of free men. But the British Royal Navy did not take the matter of piracy lightly, and when betrayal led to discovery James Porter's liberty was once again snatched away. Based on Porter's own long-forgotten writings, this is the story of one man's defiance and courage.

The old Taoist priest, who was exposed by people and was struck by lightning, smiled wryly, and his wrinkled old face showed a trace of sincerity: "Anan, I am doing this for your own good. Recently, I see that your face is a bit wrong, with a black cage and an ominous eyebrow. My mysterious people pay attention to getting lucky and avoiding evil. Even if I am a liar, I have never thought of cheating you. For the sake of a colleague, I am kind ... Speaking of faces, the old man nagged endlessly
