The Batavia: Part Four - Batavia’s Graveyard

from Tales of History and Imagination · host Simone Whitlow

This week on Tales of History and Imagination we return one last time to the wreck of the Batavia. This is where things, finally, go all ‘Lord of the Flies’ on Batavia’s Graveyard.  This is part four of a four parter - thanks for hanging in there with me all… I promise a load of one parters in the back half of the year. Trigger warnings: murder, rape, descriptions of death by dehydration, a pitched battle and a handful of executions.    Sources Include: Batavia’s Graveyard by Mike Dash And Batavia by Peter Fitzsimons.    Support Tales on Patreon for $2 US a month and get access to exclusive content, or Try our 7 Day Free Trial.    Please leave Tales a like and a review wherever you listen.
