A very good book telling of the wreck of 17 Tongansin the remote uninhabited reefs of Minerva south east of Tonga and south of Fiji. While it is true that it might have been better to set about building a boat early on to sail and get help David Fifita took good care of his crew and rescued the majority of them in the end.
