Batavia’s Graveyard is the spellbinding true story of
mutiny, shipwreck, murder, and survival. It was the autumn of
1628, and the Batavia, the Dutch East India Company’s flagship,
was loaded with a king’s ransom in gold, silver, and gems for
her maiden voyage to Java but the Batavia and her gold would
never reach Java, for the Company had also sent along a new
employee, Jeronimus Corneliszoon, a bankrupt and disgraced man
who possessed disarming charisma and dangerously heretical
ideas.
