Tale of a Shipwreck on the Steamer American
The 1880 loss of the steamer American en route from England to South Africa unfolds as a dramatic rescue tale. Captain Wait calmly organized eight lifeboats after a stern-tube rupture, the ship sank by noon near the Liberian coast, and survivors were saved by a brig to Grand Bassa and later by the Senegal to Sierra Leone, while others reached Liberia and Tenerife before England. The dinghy and boats were recovered months later, with the final note that the small boat reached Australia aboard a sailing ship.
