In this provocative retelling of shipwreck tales from the coasts of Vancouver Island, Washington, and Oregon, historian and author Coll Thrush uses maritime misfortune to think about larger themes of history on the Northwest Coast. From a Spanish galleon wrecked in 1693 to an empty tanker broken on the shore in 1999, Wrecked is a new history of an iconic element of regional history, mythology, and identity.
