Survive the Savage Sea by Dougal Robertson
"I am maybe not qualified to review this book as the author is my father, but that should not detract from the fact that this is a powerful story, and an inspiration to many wether they are seafarers or not. A diluted version has been a part of national curriculum english studies in many countries including USA and Australia. There was a film made for television, and The National Geographic did a docudrama, and other TV stations did programmes over the years.
It is one of the greatest survival epics of all time, maybe due to the fact that the story involves children , and it had the happy ending that everyone is grateful for.
If you want to catch up with the family we have a Survive the Savage Sea Facebook page with old photos and extras from the family archives."
