About this listen

 Immerse yourself in the thrilling journey of Anderson, the courageous third officer on board the renowned opium clipper, Eamont. Built in Cowes, the Eamont played a pivotal role in the opening of Japan to foreigners in 1858, acting as a dispatch boat between Nagasaki and Shanghai. This vessel was instrumental in the negotiations for Japans first commercial treaty, despite facing significant opposition. The Eamonts crew experienced the wonders of uncharted territories, witnessing history in the making. They withstood the devastating September Typhoon of 1858, where they had to cut away her masts to survive monstrous 40-foot waves. The Eamont and the Hazard were the only two ships to brave the night and live to tell the tale.Copyright Old Time Audio Art Literary History & Criticism Social Sciences World
