About the author
Adrienne Montgomerie is the author of Ghost Ships, a nonfiction title for young readers published by Crabtree Classics. The book looks at historical cases of ships that vanished or were found abandoned with their crews missing, including the Bermuda Triangle, the Mary Celeste, the Flying Dutchman legend, the Rosalie and the USS Cyclops, presenting the known facts of each case for readers to consider. Rather than asserting supernatural explanations, the book frames these disappearances as historical mysteries with disputed or incomplete accounts, in keeping with Crabtree Classics' series format for young nonfiction readers. The catalogue lists no further biographical detail on Montgomerie, and Ghost Ships is best understood as an entry-level introduction to a set of well-known maritime mysteries, aimed at school-age readers and classroom use rather than at specialists in maritime history.
