Hell Ship

by

Hell Ship by Michael Veitch tells the harrowing story of the Ticonderoga, a clipper ship that arrived in Australia in 1852 carrying emigrants from the UK. The journey was marked by a deadly typhus outbreak, and the book explores themes of survival, tragedy, and resilience. Veitch's narrative is both historical and personal, delving into the broader implications of the voyage on Australian history.
