Book Description

Secondhand. Very good condition. Minor wear to book corners and edges. The previous owner has cut out the top half-title page, apparently to remove ownership details.

This is the tale of the clipper ship Ticonderoga, which sailed from Liverpool to Australia in 1852. The ship was full of mostly Scottish emigrants escaping the Highland clearances and the potato famine.

The ship sailed into Port Phillip Bay three months later, flying the yellow contagion flag. On her harrowing voyage, Typhus had broken out.
