The Shipwreck: A Poem is a narrative poem written by William Falconer and first published in 1762. The poem tells the story of a ship called the Britannia that sets sail from Alexandria, Egypt, bound for Venice. However, the ship encounters a violent storm and is wrecked off the coast of Greece.The poem is divided into three parts, with the first part describing the ship's departure from Alexandria and the crew's anticipation of a safe journey. The second part details the storm that the ship encounters and the crew's desperate attempts to save themselves. The final part describes the aftermath of the shipwreck and the few survivors' attempts to reach safety.Falconer himself was a sailor and had experienced a shipwreck, which inspired him to write the poem. The Shipwreck: A Poem is considered a classic of English literature and has been praised for its vivid descriptions of the storm and the crew's struggle for survival. The poem also includes a glossary of nautical terms to aid readers in understanding the technical language used in the text.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
