Now in paperback, Galbraith's "The Rising Sun" is an extraordinary tour de force of historical fiction in the tradition of Caleb Carr's "The Alienist" and David Liss's "A Conspiracy of Paper." In 1698, five vessels led by the flagship "Rising Sun" embarked on a perilous voyage for the northern coast of Panama, where passengers intended to found a colony at Darien. This is the story of this mission and its tragic outcome, as recorded by the ship's superintendent of cargoes, Roderick Mackenzie.
