Reviews

"A thrilling record of storm and stress, of cruel seas and shifting sands, of broken ships, tragedy and gallantry is set down in this book. . . . David Stick, who lives on the Outer Banks, captures the spirit of this treacherous coast. He has done a major research job."
--New York Times Book Review

"An engrossing account of shipwrecks off the Outer Banks of North Carolina, between 1526 and the last years of the Second World War."
--New Yorker

"If you like shipwrecks (to read about, that is) you'll revel in Graveyard of the Atlantic, for here more than 600 wrecked vessels are mentioned in this absorbing anthology of deep water tragedies."
--Chicago Tribune
