In September 1857 the S.S. Central America carrying 500 passengers, many returning from the California goldrush, sank in a hurricanne 200 miles off the Carolina coast.No more was hear about the ship untill 198 when Tommy Thompson sailed into Norfolk Harbour with ten tons of gold. This book tells the story of how he found her. It could have been written a bit more entertainingly but even so its a gripping tale. Recommended.
