We, the Drowned - Carsten Jensen [336]
Kristian Bager. A special thank-you goes to Erik Kroman, director of the Maritime Museum in Marstal, for making the museum archives available to me. And to Karsten Hermansen, who shared his home-baked currant buns as well as his inexhaustible knowledge.
I owe Christopher Morgenstierne my thanks for helping me with maritime terminology and expressions. Any errors in sailing techniques and wind force lie entirely with the author.
Huge thanks to my dearest Laura. It has taken me half your life to write this book, and you have voiced your strong views about it with unswerving enthusiasm the whole way through.
And to my beloved Liz I owe a debt of gratitude it would take more than a lifetime to repay. You have supported me with your unique blend of professionalism and love, and it is thanks to you that I finally made it safely to port.
