The Compass - Joyce Pool
LONDON, 1950. Davey can hardly wait. He will cross the Channel with nine others. In a whaler (a whaling sloop): the Wangle III. Just before they set sail, Davey falls ill. So ill that the doctor forbids him to go. A week later he has recovered enough to wait for his friends after their journey. But then the boat stays away... The Compass is a doubly special book. The first part tells the exciting and moving story of Davey and the disaster he escaped. In the second part, Joyce Pool and her husband, journalist Pip Barnard, describe how they went in search of the history of the Wangle III: a quest that led to family members, through England, France, Germany and the Netherlands and even to Scotland Yard...
