Salvage of the Birkenhead, by A Kayle

Salvage of the Birkenhead
Allan Kayle

The salvage of the Birkenhead brings together age-old themes of honour and self sacrifice, the quest for adventure and treasure and man’s desire to challenge the might of the sea. the discoveries made by Allan Kayle and his team of divers will be added to the wealth of history and legend surrounding the sinking of the ship on which the great naval tradition of ‘women and children first’ was born.
