Quotes by Christopher Corbett (?)

“The notorious bark Libertad, which carried 560 passengers (although its legal limit was 297) lost 100 passengers on one run from China to San Francisco. Its passengers died of thirst—they had no water for the last week of the voyage—and the Libertad is frequently described by chroniclers of the passage from China as a “floating hell.”
― Christopher Corbett, The Poker Bride: The First Chinese in the Wild West
