Eddie's Restaurant | 10 E. Northwest Highway

Join us at Eddie's restaurant to discuss The Wager: A Tale of Shipwreck, Mutiny and Murder by David Grann.  The story follows a 1741 mutiny of a British Royal Navy ship after it crashed off the coast of Chile. The Wager is a page-turning story of shipwreck, survival, and savagery, culminating in a court martial that reveals a shocking truth. The powerful narrative reveals the deeper meaning of the events on the Wager, showing that it was not only the captain and crew who ended up on trial, but the very idea of empire.
