About this event

Penzance Literary Festival presents David Gibbins: A History of the World in Twelve Shipwrecks

Drawing on decades of excavating shipwrecks, renowned maritime archaeologist and bestselling author David Gibbins will take you on a voyage aboard a Bronze Age ship built during the age of Queen Nefertiti, on a Viking warship and Henry VIII’s spectacular Mary Rose or exploring the Arctic. But this is more than a tale about the fate of the ships, it’s the story of how they carried people and ideas around the world and is still relevant today.
