aPeter Palafox, son of a poor Irish parson, has never even seen a ship before signing on as a midshipman on the Centurion to seek his fortune. Together with his lifelong friend Sean O'Mara, he embarks on a journey in which they encounter disease, disaster, shipwreck and success, growing through misadventures into a capable seaman. Based on Commodore George Anson's four-year circumnavigation of the globe that began in 1740, The Golden Ocean is a rousing novelistic retelling of a particularly colourful voyage that would become one of the most notorious exploits in British naval history.
