Step into the shadowed waters of maritime history as we open our very first chapter. In this episode we journey to Norman's Woe, a treacherous reef off Gloucester's coast. Through the haunting words of Henry Wadsworth Longfellow's The Wreck of the Hesperus and the lore that inspired it, we'll untangle fact from legend and uncover why this has echoed through poetry and folklore for generations.
