Info: Almost Forgotten, Never Told : A book of people and places, dramas and adventures along the South African coast, with a few voyages into deeper waters."This book is all anecdotes (backed up with historical research where possible) that the author has collected about Table Bay. The first third of the book is all about historical ship wrecks on the Cape, and the aftermath of rescuing crew and passengers and cargo (or not), and later salvage attempts. Theres a whole chapter on the habits of sea rats, which 
was fascinating. Greens writing is beautiful and I feel the stories would be lost to history if he hadnt meticulously collected them. His books are out of print and so the stories may be lost eventually anyway." Good Reads.
