The ship was wrecked in the Gulf of St. Lawrence. The author, a native of New York, was the Neptune's Chief Mate. According to the book: "Of seventeen souls on board but six succeeded in reaching the shore, among whom was the wife and son of the captain, who was unfortunately drowned in an attempt to save the life of one of his children - the survivors, after enduring great hardships for 14 days, on a wild and uninhabited coast, were fortunately discovered and conducted to an English settlement by a friendly Indian".
