William Morgan, a descendant of the brother of the buccaneer Henry Morgan, is found floating in the Caribbean west of Martinique at sunset on 18 August 1886. Cast up on an island, he solves food, shelter and bread-making in true Crusoe fashion, hunts wild pigs and builds a boat, until a water-glass reveals a wreck below and, with Alice Millward among his companions, the hunt for a galleon’s treasure begins.
