Summary
To the Ends of the Earth, William Golding's great sea trilogy, presents the extraordinary story of a warship's troubled journey to Australia in the early 1800s. Told through the pages of Edmund Talbot's journal-with equal measures of wit and disdain-it records the mounting tensions and growing misfortunes aboard the ancient ship. An instant maritime classic, and one of Golding's finest achievements, the trilogy was adapted into a major three-part Masterpiece Theatre drama in 2006. Book jacket. Distributed by Syndetic Solutions, Inc.
