“A convincing argument”: review
“…forgotten history, not vast riches, is the greatest treasure to be found on Oak Island,” says a Halifax Chronicle Herald story (November 16, 2015) on Joy Steele’s The Oak Island Mystery, Solved.
“In her new book … the Sydney author delivers a convincing argument for strange discoveries and happenings…” it continues.
Right. That’s why CBU Press considers “solved” to be less a subtitle, more of a statement.
Without going into too much detail here, Joy Steele’s lengthy research situates Oak Island’s history of 18th-century global trade and politics, resulting in an intriguing account of the island’s real treasure: a seldom-explored aspect of maritime industry history.
