Reviews

On Jul 10 2007, SDENNEY said:

"This is the story of the barquentine, Cannibal, and the passengers and crew on her most tempestuous voyage. The date was October 12, 1927. The Cannibal, a forlorn figure as she left the South Seas port of Suva, was one of the last commercial sailing ships still trying valiantly to compete in the world of steam."
