Peter Moore’s award-winning Endeavour tells the tale of the ship that took Captain Cook to the South Seas in 1768 but was a vessel with many different lives which became the most significant ship in the history of British exploration. Paul Arnott’s Windrush: A Ship Through Time similarly explores a unique vessel which played an active part in momentous events – as a Nazi troop carrier, a prison ship transporting Jews to Auschwitz and finally in her most famous voyage from the Caribbean bringing the first wave of 20th century Caribbean migrants to Britain. Join them as they tell the intriguing story of two extraordinary ships and the remarkable windows they offer on their age.
