Perils and Captivity: The Sufferings of the Picard Family After the Shipwreck of the Medusa in 1816; An Account of the Captivity of Master de Brisson in 1785; and Madame Gaudin's Voyage Down the Amazon River in 1770 is a fascinating collection of stories that show a series of extraordinary events and origins of the human spirit under conditions of danger and limitation. The authors of this book - Charlotte-Adelaide Dard, Pierre-Ramon de Brisson and Jean Gaudin de Audonne - reveal to the reader pages of stories full of courage, faith and remarkable destiny. They show how the human spirit can withstand even the most difficult tests that life throws at us, and how even in critical moments the inner strength can show itself at the height. This book is an encouraging example for anyone facing life's challenges and an inspiration for those looking for the strength to keep going even in the darkest of times.
