Three Sheets to the Wind with Adam Courtenay

Adam’s latest book is called Three Sheets to the Wind and tells the remarkable story of the voyage in 1796 of the Sydney Cove from Calcutta to Sydney. Its massive cargo, most importantly, included 7000 gallons of best Bengali rum, being sold to the dissolute colony of NSW, under the corrupt regime of the NSW corps and the truly awful John  McArthur. Only 3 of the original crew make it to Sydney, but what a journey!
