Read Shipwreck at the Bottom of the World by Jennifer Armstrong. It's a non-fiction account of the journey along with pictures from the journey itself (they had a photographer onboard as they were expecting to make history with their crossing). It's an amazing read that totally got me hooked on the whole story. Stowaway is on my TBR list, so I'm gald to hear it was so good!
