"The Wreck of the Golden Mary" is a collaborative work from the minds of Charles Dickens and Wilkie Collins. The Golden Mary is sunk by an iceberg under mysterious circumstances, and the rescue efforts devolve into chaos. Will the passengers survive? The story portrays an amazing voyage around Cape Horn, then north to the coast of California. It takes a stunning turn when the ship strikes an iceberg and passengers and crew languish in lifeboats. Dickens's subtlety of style and picturesque depiction keeps reader rapt till the end.
