The Sea Wins

We are all drawn to the sea.
Those who call the shores of Fundy home take the twice-daily flooding and ebbing of massive tides as a matter of daily routine. But to visiting mariners, the Bay of Fundy posed particular challenges for their sea-borne commerce. Shipwrecks became part of the lore of Fundy life. They were usually enormously dramatic events, too often sadly tragic, occasionally even touched with humour.
The strong currents associated with the spring tides are probably the greatest reason for shipwreck in the Bay of Fundy. But shipwreck is seldom attributable to one factor alone. Almost every shipping casualty is the result of a combination of problems working together: fog, incompetence, and, of course, the costly and tragic damages inflicted by the fury of storms.
The lore of shipwreck makes up an important part of the history and heritage of the Fundy region. Featuring dozens of paintings and drawings by the author, The Sea Wins: Shipwrecks of the Bay of Fundy vividly recounts more than forty dramatic tales of the real people who faced great odds in their sailing ships, only to discover that inevitably, the sea wins.
