This 1799 story of illicit trading on the high seas is a classic example of the old adage: “truth is stranger than fiction”. This week BackyardLabrish continues to enlighten our history buffs with a true story of “The Shark Papers”, considered among the most fascinating documents, in the collection of manuscripts in the National Library of Jamaica, and brought to us by Dr. Rebecca Tortello – Pieces of the Past. See you in the Backyard as we explore this intriguing “Shark Drama” on the high seas, and reveal that truth is “sometimes stranger than fiction”. Join the Labrish!
