A ship discovered adrift with no crew but otherwise intact has captured imaginations for over 150 years. Often considered the ultimate ghost ship, this true tale is more chilling and perplexing than any legend.Originally launched under another name, the Mary Celeste was plagued with bad luck from the start. After being salvaged and renamed, the ship’s fate took an even darker turn.

Ten days later, the ship was found eerily abandoned, its sails tattered and its cargo untouched. Despite countless theories, from piracy to mutiny to sea monsters, the disappearance of the Mary Celeste’s crew remains unsolved to this day.What You’ll Discover in This Book:The History of the Mary Celeste: From its troubled beginnings to its ill-fated voyageThe Fateful Journey: The events leading up to the ship’s abandonmentThe Discovery: How the ship was found adrift in the Atlantic, empty of its crew and passengersTheories and Speculations: The most compelling and bizarre explanations for the disappearance of the crewThe Legacy of a Mystery: Why the Mary Celeste continues to fascinate and inspire today
